Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A frigid, snow and ice-filled winter storm walloped the northeastern United States in mid-December 2016.

Ice totals of near 0.5 in (12.7 mm) were reported in Wakeman, Ohio and 0.4 in (10.16 mm) in Hidden Valley, Pennsylvania. Icy roads on Interstate 95 in Baltimore, Maryland, caused a massive 67-car pileup when a tanker truck slid off an overpass and exploded when it crashed into railroad tracks below. Two people were killed in that accident and about two dozen more people were reported injured.
