Big snow inland, flooding on the coast

In the Northeast’s interior, from Pennsylvania to Massachusetts, the snow hit much harder: As much as 30 inches of snow fell in Damascus, Pa., near the New York border; 26 inches in Dutchess County, New York; blizzard conditions in Albany and in Worcester, Mass., where over a foot of snow fell. Binghamton, N.Y., which was under a travel ban, had seen 20 inches of snow by 2 p.m.

Tony Brooks, the vice chairman of the Wilkes-Barre City Council in Pennsylvania, said that by midafternoon Tuesday, the city’s downtown had been hit with more than two feet of snow, the most of any storm since 1996. He said that the city was at an “absolute standstill.” He added, “There is not a soul on the street except college students.”

Pennsylvania snowplows and troopers escorted a 23-month-old child in need of a heart transplant to a local children’s hospital, Gov. Tom Wolf said.

Along the New England coast, the storm knocked out power to tens of thousands of homes and caused some flooding. Video from Milford, Conn., showed streets under water well before the afternoon’s high tide.

“Southeast of Boston it’s pretty much all rain now,” said Matthew Belk of the Weather Service office in Taunton, Mass.
