A person shovels out homes and cars near the Bunker Hill Monument in Boston, Mas., on January 30. Blinding snow whipped up by powerful winds pummeled the eastern United States into the early hours of January 30, as one of the strongest winter storms in years triggered transport chaos and power outages across a region of some 70 million people.

Utility companies say all residents will have power back by the end of Monday.

More than 100,000 customers lost electricity over the weekend amid heavy snow and wind that slowed the recovery.

Energy company Eversource said in a news release it had 1,700 crews working to restore power in Massachusetts, after relief was sent in from Connecticut and New Hampshire.
