Philadelphia (5,767), Montgomery (5,671), and York (2,745) Counties have each recovered well from the storm. Only 5 customers are without power in Bucks County.

As a calm red sky replaced the turbid storm and cast a crimson pall the region Tuesday night, residents began to survey the damage done.

A tree fell across I-76 near Radnor, shutting down traffic in both lanes for several hours.

In New Jersey, possible tornadoes were caught on camera ripping through the streets.

Downed trees, downed wires, and even minor flooding in some areas were just some of the consequences being dealt with Wednesday morning.

It is not yet known when residents will have power back.
