Now the area will be having warmer weather tomorrow and the melting has already begun. The likelihood of rain is going to add to the weight on many homes and businesses and will probably lead to more collapsed buildings.
On top of that, flooding is also expected. Because leaves have not yet been picked up, this is apt to clog many of the water drains. Snow is everywhere and as it melts, it will most likely cause flooding in lower areas.
Many stories have come out that show that many people have helped others in need during this major snow event. One person even walked six miles in the snow to deliver needed medicine for a friend's mother. She was stuck at a hotel and he says he had nothing better to do - and she needed the medicine.
Comments: It is good to hear good stories like this where people are concerned enough for others that they are willing to make a sacrifice. Other heart-warming stories include nurses who stayed for days at hospitals because their replacements couldn't get there.
