Powerful nor'easter claims at least five lives; 'life & death' situation, weather officials say

A powerful nor’easter barreled into the East Coast on Friday, bringing heavy rain, strong winds and wet snow as residents up and down the eastern coastline braced for flooding. The storm has been blamed for at least five deaths, and hundreds of flights were canceled as the storm bore down on an extended region.

Fox News’ Janice Dean reported the nor’easter would deliver rain and flooding conditions with a possibility of hurricane-force winds that could reach 90 mph along the coast.

The Eastern Seaboard was expecting wind gusts exceeding 50 mph. The National Weather Service has dubbed the nor'easter "one of the most powerful windstorms in recent years."
