PHILADELPHIA, PA (Eagle News) — The Northeastern Seaboard of the United States was covered with snow once again on Wednesday. This happened just as residents of Philadelphia were still recovering from last Friday’s snowfall that caused power outages throughout the region and made travel difficult. Residents of the city were bracing for up to 13 inches of snow. The National Weather Service reported that 6.1 inches fell at Philadelphia International Airport and up to 26 inches dropped at Montville, New Jersey on Wednesday.
