Tell us: have you been affected by the US storm?

At least seven people have died as a fierce winter storm sweeps across the US, leaving hundreds of thousands of people without power, schools and roads closed, and flights cancelled.

Twenty-six states, from Texas to Massachusetts, were under storm warnings issued by the National Weather Service over the weekend, with many alerts remaining in place this week.

Widespread intense cold is spreading southwards, with lows of -20C in parts of Texas.

We would like to talk to people affected by the storm in the US, if it is safe to do so. What has happened? How are you coping? Tell us.

Though we’d like to hear from you, your safety and security are most important. When recording, or sharing your content with us, please put your welfare and the welfare of others first. Extreme weather events can be very unpredictable and carry very real risks.
