In New York City, at least 6 deaths are linked to the storm. 

North of Dallas, a 14-inch water main burst, flooding streets and forcing officials to shut off water to homes.

Dangerous driving conditions stretched approximately 2,000 miles. 

The National Guard was deployed in Arkansas to help move stranded vehicles out of the snow.

In Mississippi, crews were clearing the streets, with officials urging people to stay off the roads.

Boston and parts of New England braced for up to two feet of snow, while parts of New York and Pennsylvania got more than a foot – the most the areas have seen in years.

Just north of Washington, D.C., CBN News White House Correspondent Kelly Wright's neighborhood saw a foot of snow. 

"This is a ruler, and it's not the most scientific way of doing things, but I'm going to stick this 12-inch ruler into the ground to see how deep it goes to get a sense of the accumulation right here in my own neighborhood. As you can see, that is pretty deep," Wright said.

Meanwhile, in the nation's capital, some folks tried to make the best of it, with a giant snowball fight.
