More than 300 flights were canceled across the state yesterday. Delayed more than 4 thousand. More than 85,000 residential and commercial buildings have been left without electricity due to adverse weather conditions.


The weather department of the country has predicted that this adverse situation will continue throughout this week. Meteorologists have warned of heavy rain on Sunday.


Meanwhile, different states of the United States are covered with snow and ice sheets. Same situation in Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, New York. In addition to the closure of educational institutions and private offices, passengers suffered greatly as more than a thousand flights were canceled due to adverse weather conditions.
