First off, if you have no idea what a "nor'easter" is, Jerry has all of the details in his Wednesday entry here.

Areas hardest hit by Superstorm Sandy are dealing with new outages after a nor'easter left a blanket of snow that snapped storm-weakened trees and downed power lines, the Associated Press reported.

There's more than 200,000 new outages in the Sandy-battered parts of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. The nor'easter, as promised, brought gusting winds, rain and snow, but not the flooding that was anticipated, according to the AP.

Here are some photos and videos from the Associated Press.

PS: Since the beginning of the month (and a few days before), I have been posting photos and videos of Hurricane/Superstorm Sandy hitting the East Coast, as well as the aftermath and recovery. If you are interested in donating to help Sandy victims, who are now being hit by the nor'easter storm as well, our own Action Line reporter Phil Mulkin has mailing addresses, phone numbers, websites and more of trustworthy charities helping the cause. You can read more on ways to help here. Also, he talks about ways to avoid Sandy charity scams here.
