Freak(奇怪的, 反常的) snowstorms have hit America's East coast.
Some say Mother Nature played a Halloween trick on 60 million people. Only four times in the last 135 years has New York's Central Park seen snow this early.
The blizzards(暴風雪) caused power cuts and some deaths as roads became treacherous(奸詐的, 變化莫測的).
More than a thousand flights were cancelled with some passengers trapped on(被困) grounded(地面) planes for hours.
