Biting cold and heavy snow causing chaos - 4' in India

Biting cold and heavy snow causing chaos across the northern hemisphere - Feb 10 - Heaviest snowfal in India in 25 years. The town of Manali in Himachal Pradesh is covered by one-and-a- half meters of snow (more than 4 feet) and is expecting more. Temperatures have hovered as low as -12C (10F).
In Sevlievo, Bulgaria, temperatures fell to -34C (-29F) on Wednesday, as opposed to the average low of about -5C (23F). Temperatures have hovered around -20C (-4F) in the rest of the country, and 40% of the Danube is frozen. Bosnia-Hercegovina has endured similar low temperatures. Heavy snow has also been falling across the northern and western mountains in Pakistan, with some areas now blanketed by nearly 4m (11 foot).

Meanwhile, the northeastern United States is bracing itself for yet another massive winter storm. Some areas of New Hampshire and Maine may see up to 45cm (18 inches) of snow.
