Four people have died when a bus overturned on an icy road in the western Canadian province of British Columbia. Electricity is gradually being restored. Fewer than 200,000 households out of a million and 700,000 at the peak of the crisis are without electricity.

Thousands of flights have been cancelled. 55 million Americans remain under severe weather alert. It is coldest in the state of Montana, where thermometers dropped to minus 45 degrees Celsius.
