February 19, 2008 Power being restored after storm slams region Play video

(NECN) - Things are getting back to normal after Monday's snow storm hit much of the region hard. It was the first major snow storm of 2008.

The storm forced flight cancellations, a snow day for students and power outages.

Crews have been working to restore power to those that lost it.

Utility crews hope to have all the power back on later in the day Tuesday.

NECN's Latoyia Edwards has more on that from Walpole, Massachusetts.

More on this story from the Associated Press: BOSTON (AP) - Power has been restored to all but a relative handful of customers around Massachusetts who lost electricity during Monday's winter storm.

NStar said this morning that less than 200 customers remained in the dark, most of them in the Walpole area. Western Massachusetts Electric reports only a few dozen outages remaining, all in Springfield.
