As the Christmas season quickly approaches, so has the snow in the Northeast. This past weekend they have really been shown a good example of early, heavy snowfalls as most areas received around one foot of snow. Flights were cancelled and many area residents were stuck inside their homes due to bad road conditions and cold temperatures. Over 10,000 tons of road salt and 2,000 vehicles were out to try to clear roads but many workers found themselves working long hours to keep up with the heavy accumulations. From the Northeast the snow moved to the Midwest where we saw snow but not quite as much as those to the North. Along with this came shipment delays with mail. All in all we need to bundle up and bundle up for what looks to be a cold and snowy holiday season.
