People in New York were urged to stay home yesterday.

A powerful blizzard dropped more than 30cms of snow across parts yesterday bringing travel to a near standstill for millions.

Anne Conney's flight was one of some 5,700 flights shelved due to the amount of snow that fell across the US. The Co Cavan woman is hoping she can board a flight from New York this evening.
