The northeast coast of the United States meets Monday with sunny and finally cloudless weather. Over the weekend, America experienced one of the most dangerous snow storms, which has already been called "Jonas". Thousands of flights were canceled, the federal government, schools and the subway were closed. People were strongly advised to stay at home and wait out the storm, and even more so not to use personal vehicles. As a result, all products were swept away in stores in a matter of hours. Despite the warning not to drive cars, several kilometers of traffic jams formed on the roads in some cities, and at least ten people died as a result of accidents.

The snowstorm "Jonas" hit 11 states in which a state of emergency was declared.

However, not everyone was upset by the bad weather, many Americans were delighted with the abundant snow and had fun to the fullest.
