Things to know about the massive weekend blizzard

A massive blizzard that blanketed much of the eastern United States set records, paralyzed travel and damaged property.

More than two dozen weather-related deaths — from car crashes, shoveling snow and carbon monoxide — were reported by authorities.

The blizzard's heavy snow, powerful winds and churning high tides collapsed roofs and inundated homes.

Travel bans that restricted non-emergency vehicles from streets all across the region were lifted, but mass transit services faced hurdles.

In New York, trains started running out of Grand Central Terminal but service on the Long Island Rail Road — the nation's busiest commuter rail service — was still suspended.

Officials for both LIRR and the Metropolitan Transportation Authority said almost all mass transit services will be running in time for the morning rush hour.

In Philadelphia, where subways ran through the storm, transit officials began restoring bus and trolley services but most commuter trains were canceled Sunday.

New York City's nearly 1 million public school students still have classes Monday, despite the record snowfall.
