Most of the area received 3 to 6 inches of snow between Friday and Saturday, but public safety officials reported few major weather-related problems.
While New England and parts of New York received 2 to 3 feet of snow, the storm mostly spared Northeast Pennsylvania. Yostville near Moscow reported 8 inches of snow, the most in Lackawanna County, according to Dan Pydynowski, senior metrologist for AccuWeather.
On Saturday, PPL reported no power outages in the region. The snowstorm also caused few serious crashes overnight and Saturday morning, according to emergency officials and James May, spokesman for the state Department of Transportation.
On Friday night, Mr. May said PennDOT crews were out early to prepare the roads before the snow began to fall. Weather complications some meteorologists had predicted, including rain and freezing rain, never materialized.
"If it's just snow, it's easier to deal with than freezing rain and ice," Mr. May said.
Weather conditions for the rest of the weekend should be "mostly clear and cold" with temperatures dipping into single digits, said Mr. Pydynowski. Tonight and early Monday may bring a mix of sleet and freezing rain. As the temperature rises to a high of 45 degrees Monday, the freezing rain will turn into rain, he added.
