Year 2020 is ending but not without another crisis. A winter storm Gail has affected parts of Northeast US. The heavy snow storm Gail is impacting parts of the mid-Atlantic and northeast US. Heavy snowfall has occured in major cities of New York, Boston, Philadelphia, New Jersey. Surrounding regions are already covered in a thick blanket of snow, just in time for Christmas. Pictures and videos of snowstorm Gail have been shared online and all the regions are transforming into winter wonderland!  It certainly looks pretty and people cannot stop saying, "Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas!" However, all is not as pretty as it looks as people have also been severely impacted, two people even losing their lives.

Snowstorm Gail is said to be likely biggest storm in several years. A high-impact nor'easter comes with heavy snow, strong winds and coastal flooding. People have been issued warnings to stay indoors. The National Weather Service says snow could fall at the rate of 2 inches per hour or more, at times. This storm is produced by a combination of a deep upper-level trough swinging across the mid-South, an area of low pressure developing off the southeast coast, and a strong arctic high-pressure system located over southern Quebec, Canada. And as heavy snowfall continues to fall here, residents are sharing pictures of thick snow-blanketed surroundings. Kashmir Sees First Snowfall of Winter Season 2020, See Beautiful Pictures of the Valley Drenched in a Carpet of Snow.
