Blizzard Grips Philadelphia Region with Transit Halts, Travel Bans, and Citywide Disruptions
A major blizzard hit the Philadelphia region, triggering widespread travel bans in New Jersey and Delaware, extensive power outages, and mass transit disruptions as SEPTA, Amtrak, and NJ Transit suspended or reduced service. Philadelphia International Airport canceled hundreds of flights, and many city services and closures followed (including the Philadelphia Museum of Art). The city declared a disaster emergency as crews worked to clear streets and restore operations, with some services gradually resuming later Monday and forecasts of easing conditions as temperatures rise later in the week.
