Most decedents were male (39%) and adults (62.5%). Exposure to extreme temperatures (47.1%) was the most common cause of death. Among indirect deaths, motor vehicle collision (12.5%), and carbon monoxide poisoning (7.4%) represented the top two circumstances.<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>\n\t  <jats:sec id=\"S1935789323001088_as4\">\n\t    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n\t    <jats:p>This was the first time CDC activated media mortality surveillance for a winter storm.
