"Chilling Temperatures and Snowstorm Sweep Rockies as Strong Fall Cold Front Hits"

A strong fall cold front is bringing plummeting temperatures to the central and eastern United States, with some areas experiencing a drop-off of over 30 degrees. Sixty million Americans are under frost or freeze alerts, and the below-normal temperatures are expected to continue into Halloween.
