Winter storm engulfs US east coast
In New York City, Mayor Bill de Blasio was criticised for keeping schools open despite the snow piling on the ground.
"Why [aren't] schools all around NYC closed? It's going to take some kid or kids getting hurt before this goofball policy gets changed," Al Roker, a prominent meteorologist and television figure on NBC, wrote on Twitter.
He is currently in Sochi, Russia, for the Olympics, but has a child in a city school.
Mr de Blasio responded that many parents depended on schools to watch over their children while they work.
Someone who understands and cares.
My wife, who raised my stepdaughter as a single parent here in Pittsburgh, was very impressed.
