Main Street in Pittston was tranquil on Monday evening after 10-plus inches of snow fell on the region a week ago.<\/p>\n

Luzerne Avenue in West Pittston, as seen looking toward Wyoming Avenue, looked like a Christmas postcard after the storm.<\/p>\n

You can barely see the Insalaco Shopping Center from Wyoming Avenue in West Pittston, with mounds of snow piled up to 10 feet.<\/p>\n

GREATER PITTSTON \u2014 The evening of the aftermath of one of the biggest snowstorms in a few years was quiet and serene. The photos shown are from different parts of Greater Pittston, well after evening fell.<\/p>\n

The area received between 10 and 12 inches of snow on top of one of the longest periods of frigid weather. The extremely low temperatures will lift slightly this week, but still below seasonal temperatures.<\/p>\n

As of this past Friday, many of the municipalities were still clearing streets.<\/p>\n
