Early Snow Pelts East Coast, Cuts Power to 2.3 Million Homes 3 dead, over 2 million without power as snowstorm slams Northeast, Mid-Atlantic 3 dead in early East Coast snow storm Rare October snowstorm slams US Northeast A freak fall snow storm slammed the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast on Saturday, leaving three people dead, more than 2 million households without power and thousands of air travelers stranded. An 84-year-old man was napping in a recliner at his home in Temple, Pennsylvania, on Saturday afternoon when part of a large, snow-filled tree fell into his house and killed him "instantly," according to a state police report. With numerous downed trees in the area, rescue crews took two hours to "safely remove the victim."

Unfortunately after staying in the riats in Fez, and the two Kashbahs in the desert (which we thought were pretty cool) our definintion of "cool" wasn't as hip as the Lonely Planets. I don't know what this says about us (maybe we're not as hip as we thought) but this place was way to chic for us and kind of a disappointment. (Black and white tile floors, plain white walls, no tile work, and a purple room.) We decided to stay there only one night and be on our way to E ssaouira.
