Severe Weather Team 6 said on Monday the storm is over but mostly cloudy skies and snow flurries will stick around today with little if any additional accumulation. Temperatures are expected to be seasonable.

While officials said the latest storm didn't carry the snowfall clout as others earlier this month, it made up for it with strong winds and blowing snow. At one point early Friday, PennDOT had 175 plow trucks in operation across its 9th Engineering District, and crews were still struggling to keep roads open and passable.
PennDOT officials said, even after a rough February, they've only used about 25 percent of the salt they would in a typical year. Officials said, from a budget standpoint, the snow cleanup won't put any summer projects in jeopardy.
Other officials said they were concerned about high winds causing power outages. People who see downed power lines should stay away from the area and call Penelec at 1-888-LIGHTSS (1-888-544-4877).

On Friday, high winds and blowing snow caused major travel problems.
Residents should always abide by what their county government is advising. Communities can enact a parking ban or snow emergency, which means people must get their cars off the road so crews can plow.
Thursday, Bedford Borough implemented a winter weather emergency at 11 p.m. until further notice, meaning people can't park on public streets or alleys.
If a county government announces a state of emergency, it means that driving restrictions and travel are only for certain personnel.
However, the governor can declare a state of emergency, which means counties can receive help from the National Guard or funds to clean up damage left behind. It does not mean that roads are closed.
