2,900 flights cancelled as winter storm Janus sends country into another polar plunge

Thousands of flights were canceled, students got an extra day off from school or were being sent home early, and the federal government closed its offices in the Washington area on Tuesday as another winter storm bore down on the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast.

The National Weather Service said winter storm Janus could bring 10 to 14 inches of snow to Philadelphia and southern New England and up to a foot in New York City, followed by bitter cold.

An arctic air mass will plunge the eastern half of the United States into a deep freeze, with wind chills as low as 40 degrees below zero, the weather service said.

About 2,900 flights were canceled and thousands more delayed today, with airports from Washington to Boston affected. An additional 450 flights for Wednesday were already canceled.
