Approximately 1.6 million people are still out of power on the east coast! The coast was hit with a rare October storm on Saturday dumping 31.4 inches in Jaffrey, New Hampshire,knocking out power to about 3 million homes according to the National Weather Service. And while other parts of the coast didn't get hit as hard, the weather caused major outages due to the snow, temperatures and wind knocking trees over onto power lines up and down the coast leaving millions without power.
The winter storm has been linked to eight deaths so far and beat the old record for October snowfall in New York city which was .8 inches, October 30, 1925.
