At least 22 deaths so far.I hate to say it, but makes the second disaster with many deaths since Annapolis. The Pacific Northwest devastating hurricane and flooding. And one week later this ice storm disaster. I wonder how many more people have to die, before the US stops meddling in Israel.
Pray for a dramatic change in weather for these hard hit areas, otherwise the death toll will surely rise, with so many without heat.
