8 Killed, 3 Million Without Power in Northeast Snowstorm 
---------------------------------------------------------



A rare October snowstorm has killed at least eight people and left some
three million people without power in the northeastern United States.
The storm touched down from West Virginia to Maine, with weather
emergencies declared in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and
Massachusetts. Hundreds of schools have been closed today and some areas
are even planning on delaying tonight's Halloween trick-or-treating out
of fear for children's safety.
