Very strange weather for October in the Northeast.......Governors of New York, New Jersey, and Conneticut, declared a "state of emergency"..... Very early snowstorm fell while leaves were still on trees that became so heavy with the heavy wet snow it caused disastrous results. Tree limbs and branches , and entire trees, fell at an alarming rate.
The trees tooks down power lines causing power outages to 1/2 million electric customers. Phones, and cable, and electricity out. Streets in many towns are not passable because they are blocked by trees and electric wires. Many trees fell on houses, and cars. Schools are closing due to weather. Shelters set up for those with no heat, hot water, and cooking facilities or refrigeration.
This time of year in the northeast is usually beautiful Autumn weather with leaves turning and moderate temperatures . It's unusual to see snow before Thanksgiving, never mind before Halloween.
Everyone caught off guard for this strange weather pattern.
