New Orleans transformed into a winter wonderland after a major snowstorm brought blizzard conditions to the southeastern state of Louisiana. The record-breaking snowstorm blanketed streets and trees and brought the bustling city to a halt. The deadly and powerful winter storm swept across the South and brought heavy snow to areas that rarely see such cold winters. But it also resulted in the city experiencing its first snowfall in 15 years, with many areas receiving between 8 and 11 inches of snow. Netizens did not waste any time in sharing mesmerising photos of the city turned into a snow town. While some took to social media to share stunning pictures of the snow in New Orleans, others shared videos of people enjoying music and playing in the snow.
