A massive winter storm has caused thousands of flight cancellations in the United States and left more than 1 million people without power, bringing wind-driven snow, ice and rain to more than half the country.

More than 11,000 flights within, into or out of the U.S. were delayed or canceled Friday, according to the tracking site FlightAware.
