Blizzard conditions were reported across most of the Midwest from Illinois to Ohio.
Numerous flights were canceled due to the snow and ice across various airports including in Toronto, Ottawa, Quebec City, Montreal, Kansas City, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Cleveland, Boston and Cincinnati.
900 flights were canceled at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.

Lackawanna County and Luzerne County in northeastern Pennsylvania received so much snow that every highway was closed.

At New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, several empty JetBlue airplanes were frozen to the parking stands at the gates and incoming flights could not access the stands as a result, while outgoing flights already taxiing were ordered to hold on the taxiway due to weather conditions.
 Many passengers in planes, either inbound or outbound, were held in the planes, eating peanuts and other snacks for as much as 10 hours before the decision was made to cancel the outgoing flights or a gate had opened for the inbound ones.
Several airports including Bradley International Airport in Connecticut, Washington's Ronald Reagan National Airport, and John C. Munro International Airport in Hamilton were completely shut down for several hours.
 GO Train in Toronto and  Amtrak train service from Boston was also disrupted.
In Scranton, Pennsylvania the Toyota Pavilion at Montage Mountain collapsed under the weight of the snow on February 15, 2007.
Strong winds also accompanied the storm but damage was minimal, though a radio tower pole was toppled by 40 mph (64 km/h) winds in Ohio.

Road traveling was extensively slowed down and numerous accidents and pile-ups were reported across several states and in Ontario.
One of the accidents on the Ohio Turnpike involved two tractor-trailers which fell several hundred feet, and another one on Highway 403 in Hamilton involved three tractor-trailers and five cars which forced the closure of the road.
Numerous other major roads were also temporarily shutdown, including Highway 401 in Ontario due to a fatal accident in Napanee  and Autoroute 20 and Route 132 in eastern Quebec between Quebec City and Rimouski.

In Sherbrooke, Quebec, where nearly 2 feet (0.61 m) of snow fell, several hundred students were forced to sleep at schools as buses were unable to travel in the near blizzard conditions.
The school board was criticized for opening schools on that day.

Severe ice caused a 50-mile (80 km) stretch of Interstate 78 in Pennsylvania between Lebanon County and Allentown to be shut down, stranding motorists for upwards of 24 hours and requiring the National Guard to be called in.
Other stretches of highway throughout Pennsylvania were shut down, including Interstate 80,  81, and after the storm, even the Pennsylvania Turnpike.
On February 16, Governor Ed Rendell called for a thorough investigation into how the state handled the winter weather emergency, citing a lack of communication and quick action as the cause of the problems, and even going so far as to taking responsibility for the situation.
