Donald Trump holds a 14-point advantage over Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, a national Fox News poll released on Friday has found.
The real-estate magnate is leading Cruz, 34-percent to 20-percent, among Republican primary voters. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, the only other candidate with double-digit support, is in third place with 110f the vote. He's followed by retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, who received 8-percent, with former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Ohio Gov. John Kasich tied for fifth with 4-percent.
Up to 85 million people are in the path of a storm that's expected to rock much of the East Coast of the United States.
Snow has started to fall, but the weather is expected to get worse early Saturday morning, according to CNN Meteorologist Chad Myers.
"The fuse was just lit," Myers said. Once it gets to South Carolina, "that's when the firecracker goes off."
Here are the latest developments as of 10:45 p.m. ET:
--The nation's capital and Baltimore are taking a direct hit from the storm.
-- Georgia, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Kentucky, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Virginia and West Virginia have all declared states of emergency due to the storm as of Friday. Washington, D.C., has declared a "snow emergency."
-- The National Weather Service office in D.C./Baltimore tweeted: "Worst of the #winterstorm upcoming 1am-1pm. Damaging winds along Bay shore. Heavy snow everywhere. Stay safe."
-- Virginia State Police had responded to 841 traffic crashes and 607 disabled vehicles by 6 p.m. Friday.
-- Residents appeared to be heeding warnings to stay off the roads, said Chris Geldart of the District of Columbia's emergency management agency. "There are not many folks out at all," he told CNN.
-- Heavy snow with blizzard conditions is developing in southern Maryland, the National Weather Service said.
-- The storm system was in a bit of a lull late Friday before "it explodes over the Atlantic Ocean," said Myers. When the low hits the warm water off the Carolinas, the storm will take off again. Two inches of snow may fall per hour in some spots.
Meteorologists have warned the public to take heed as some areas could receive between 18 and -- on the extreme high end -- 40 inches. "This is not a near miss," Myers said. "This is a direct hit."
Here's how the storm is already affecting traffic, air travel, the power grid -- and a look at what's still to come.
