Vehicles drive along a highway during a winter storm, Sunday, Jan. 5, 2025, in Cincinnati.

A powerful winter storm is lumbering across parts of the central and eastern U.S.

Winter storm warnings are in effect from Illinois to New Jersey. And some areas will get a lot of snow. They will also get freezing rain and ice, blustery winds and frigid temperatures.

There are power outages reported. Nearly a quarter of a million customers don't have power in Virginia, Kentucky and West Virginia.

Here's what we saw.
