Winter Storm Stella has claimed at least five lives across the country as treacherous conditions continue to ravage the northeast and Midwestern regions.

A 16-year-old New Hampshire girl died when she crashed her car into a tree on a snowy road and an elderly man was killed when he was run over by a snow plow in Connecticut.

In Longmeadow, Massachusetts, a Department of Public Works employee died when his truck collided with an Amtrak train.

The man was cleaning snow alone off of the train tracks in a Wildlife Rescue Area where there are no lights or crossing signals when the train struck him in his truck, according to Western Mass News.

Two elderly men also died while shoveling snow in Milwaukee as the blizzard took its toll on large parts of the United States.

Officials had warned 50 million people on Monday to prepare for the would-be crippling effects of a blizzard that was supposed to hit the Northeast region of the country Tuesday with up to 24 inches of snow and 60mph winds.

But Tuesday morning around 9am, forecasters significantly downgraded their predictions of New York City receiving up to 2 feet of snow and canceled the blizzard warning, and instead now predict that the Big Apple will only receive 4 to 8 inches of snow.

As of 4pm EST, roughly 7 inches of snow had fallen in the popular Central Park, as more than 24 inches had fallen in Norwich, which is located in upstate New York.

A state of emergency was previously declared in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Maryland, as many flocked to prepare for what was thought to be the worst storm of the winter season.

The storm tracked a little farther west than forecasters originally anticipated, resulting in a sloppy mix of snow and sleet for larger portions of Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

More than 7,600 US flights were cancelled for Tuesday, with airports in New York, Boston, Baltimore, Washington and Philadelphia hardest hit amid reports that up to four inches of snow an hour will fall during the peak of the storm. Some 200 people were said to be stranded at John F. Kennedy Airport.

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo gave a press conference Tuesday morning where he acknowledged that the storm was not as powerful as expected to be.

'Mother nature is an unpredictable lady, all of the forecasts said the storm would hit New York City and Long Island the hardest, so we deployed accordingly and New York City and Long Island charter bus family reunions Brooklyn had been the focus of our activity,' Cuomo said.

'The way the weather pattern is actually shaping up, the storm has moved westward and is less than a snow storm in New York City and Long Island; it is more sleet and precipitation.

'This is basically good news from what we were expecting.'

But Cuomo warned that officials have to watch the temperatures outside, as the sleet could turn into ice and make commuting more difficult.

In addition, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio also said the storm was very 'different than what was projected.'

'The National Weather Service does everything they know how to do. Mother Nature still makes its own decisions,' he said during a press conference Tuesday.

De Blasio said despite the change in the forecast, a state of emergency for the city will remain in effect until midnight.

National Weather Service meteorologist Joe Pollina said a wintry mix would continue to fall into the early afternoon, then taper off by mid- to late afternoon.

'We're looking at four to six inches across much of New York City, maybe just over six inches for northern parts of the city, then lower amounts in Long Island,' Pollina said.

'As you head north into Westchester and northeast New Jersey up to a foot is still possible for the north,' he added.

A mix of sleet and snow was falling over the city, charter bus family reunions Brooklyn where residents on the Upper East Side left for work on the subway and buses were running, while others shoveled snow off the sidewalk.

Pollina added that it was no longer the worst New York storm of the season.

New Jersey Governor Chris Christie said on Tuesday that the state of emergency he declared on Monday remains in his state.
