Crews working hard to clear snow in Kansas City: 'This is an all hands on deck moment for us'

FOX Weather Meteorologist was in Kansas City on Sunday and spoke with City Manager Brian Platt about how the city is dealing with this powerful and dangerous winter storm as it sweeps across the U.S. from the Midwest to East Coast and produces heavy snow and crippling ice leading to treacherous travel and power outages.

A major winter storm is sweeping across much of the nation's middle section through the end of the weekend and into early this week, bringing a swath of hazardous snow and ice.

WINTER STORM THREATENS 27 STATES AS HEAVY SNOW, CRIPPLING ICE CREATE TRAVEL CHAOS, POWER OUTAGES

Winter Storm Warnings and Blizzard Warnings now cover millions, while Ice Storm Warnings warn of accretions reaching potentially destructive thicknesses of over a half inch. That could lead to widespread power outages and extended travel headaches as power lines, trees and roads become coated in ice.

The winter weather is expected to continue east into the mid-Atlantic states by Monday, bringing perhaps some of the heaviest snows in three years.
