Mine flickered a bunch of times, I thought it would probably go out overnight so I left candles and LED lanterns pre-staged around the house just in case.

Driving about 20 miles around here this morning, the roads were all clear and I only saw three trees that were leaning against powerlines (although the lines were still holding). But the snow was just crashing down in great quantities as it started melting on the trees - very startling when it hit the roof of the car!

I hope that was it for the year.

Unfortunately, this is not an April Fools joke...

This one has the potential to bring down more trees and powerlines. Looks like I will get almost nothing down here, but it could be a mess to the north...

"Generally 2 to 4 inches of snow in our region, with lesser amounts possible in southeast NJ, southern DE southern portions of northeast MD. Snowfall rates of 1-2 inches per hour may occur during the Monday morning commute. There may be an area north of I-195 where up to 6 inches of snow could fall"
