A severe winter storm is hitting the eastern US, extending a cold snap that has already claimed 11 lives.

Forecasters say a severe pressure drop will lead to an explosive winter storm along the eastern US, and is already bringing snow to Florida.

The US is currently on its 10th day of record-breaking frigid temperatures which began around Christmas.

But the predicted new storm has led meteorologists to deploy a new term - bomb cyclone.
