Footage shows an American Airlines plane being de-iced as freezing winter weather swept through New York.

Ground staff sprayed the Airbus A320 at the Rochester International Airport on November 10, as heavy snow blanketed the area.

The process involves a heated glycol-based fluid that melts ice and prevents it from reforming for a limited period, known as the 'holdover time'.

De-icing is a vital safety procedure, ensuring aircraft surfaces remain clear of ice buildup that could affect performance or control during flight.

The state experienced its first snow of the season this week as a powerful polar vortex gripped the eastern half of the United States.
