There have been 89 confirmed weather-related fatalities linked to the past week's winter weather, according to a CBS News tally, even as dangerous cold continues to impact the nation. 

More deaths were reported in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Mississippi, Washington, Kentucky, Wisconsin, New York, New Jersey and more. 

Some deaths remain under investigation to confirm that they are weather-related. This includes a person killed in a five-way car crash in Kentucky, and four deaths in Illinois, including two caused by a car accident. Some states warned drivers to take extra caution on the roads during the deep freeze. Mississippi officials told its residents to "be aware of black ice on the roads, and drive only if necessary."
