Winter storm hits central US, barrels toward Washington

A winter storm brought snow, ice and freezing temperatures to a broad swath of the U.S. on Sunday, with some 60m people across more than a dozen states from Kansas to New Jersey under winter weather warnings and advisories. The storm was moving toward the mid-Atlantic, where Washington, D.C. was bracing for heavy snow and bitter cold on Monday, the same day the U.S. Congress is set to meet and formally certify Republican Donald Trump's election as president. The storm forced the cancellation of hundreds of flights, including more than 275 in both Kansas City and St. Louis, according to the aviation tracking website FlightAware.<br/>
