   Yes.. welcome to Spring.. We got 4 inches of new snow this afternoon   
   and it is being followed by a fair amount of freezing rain again,   
   later turning to just rain. Tomorrow it will be up to near 50f.   
   But a week from now they predict some daytime highs back down below   
   freezing. It's all over the place this year.   
      
   MP>> I hear there are still about 350,000 homes without power so this

   MP>That is a big event, especially when you consider that the area includes   
     >portions of sparse population.   
      
   Other reports had that number as high as 390,000 people. I suspect   
   that the difference is one report was the total and the other was   
   the number still without power at the time.
