Heavy snow, storms, and blizzards have wreaked havoc in the United States for four consecutive days, causing huge economic and human losses. On January 23, 24, 25, and 26, local time, heavy snow, storms, and blizzards hit 30 of the 50 states in the United States, disrupting public life and causing huge economic and human losses.

US economic experts have estimated that billions of US dollars have been lost due to the severe winter weather in 30 states for four consecutive days, with thousands of flights canceled, large businesses closed, and economic activity reduced along with the impact on people's lives.

The annual GDP of the US is 30 trillion (300 trillion) US dollars. The American news agency Associated Press (AP) mentioned that US economists have estimated that this year's winter weather will have a major impact on this annual GDP. According to the AP, 24,654 flights were canceled in four days, causing a loss of 115 billion (115 billion) US dollars. Climate economist Adam Smith has claimed that the severe weather, which will affect the lives of millions of people, will be the first billion-dollar weather disaster for the country in 2026. 'Billions of US dollars in losses cannot be erased immediately,' he said.

Similarly, last year, fires in Los Angeles, California caused 250 billion (250 billion) US dollars in damage. Comparing that loss to the impact of this year's winter season, US economic experts have said that another $250 billion in losses could be reported as private large industries and companies shut down in 30 states.

Climate economist Smith claims that the comparison of the impact of the winter weather in 30 states and the damage caused by the fires in Los Angeles, California last year is almost the same, so it is only an initial estimate. "This is an initial estimate, and additional insurance can reduce the risk of damage by $60 billion," Smith told the AP.

Based on initial incident reports, at least 30 people have died so far due to snow, storms and blizzards. The exact number of deaths in each of the 30 states most affected by the snow has not been made public. Although exact details were not released by state, at least 30 people died in car accidents, extreme cold-related homelessness, snowplow accidents and ice skating accidents, according to the AP, citing meteorologist Jonathan Porter.

More than a million Americans were forced to spend their days in the dark due to four days of severe winter weather. More than a million people in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Washington, D.C., Texas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Georgia and Alabama were forced to spend their days without power for two days.

Similarly, the US aviation sector has been severely affected in the span of four days. More than 24,000 flights were canceled in four days due to bad weather and low visibility. 24,654 flights were canceled from January 23 to 27. FlightAware reported that 690 flights were canceled on January 23, 4,100 on January 24, the highest number of 11,619 on January 25, 6,300 on January 26, and 1,845 on January 27.
