PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The massive cleanup effort will continue on Tuesday after a winter storm slammed the Philadelphia region.

Officials have stressed that road conditions may still be dangerous, especially with temperatures plummeting this week.

The next chance of widespread precipitation doesn't come until the weekend, and we will be watching to see whether a nor'easter forms and tracks along the coast or mainly stays out to sea.

Drivers forced to take it slow as snow blankets King of Prussia

Along Route 202 in King of Prussia on Sunday, video captured car after car spinning out and getting stuck.

If you had four-wheel drive, you could get around.

"What are you doing out here?" asked Action News' Chad Pradelli.

"Visiting a friend and getting some food," said Janet Carboni of Warrington, Pa., who ventured out during the storm.

Mark Rayfield's dog was spotted taking a bathroom break during a quick walk.

Rayfield drove from Boston on Sunday after visiting family.

"It wasn't bad until Connecticut. New York City was bad... a lot of closed roads, trucks stuck. Everything was fine until you hit plows, then it slows you down," he said.

Most businesses in the area were closed.

Wegmans stayed open, but good luck finding those special ingredients.

"I needed some tomatoes for my soup to keep warm today, and they are all out pretty much of everything," said Mark Fernandez of King of Prussia.
