Delaware is experiencing its snowiest storm in a decade as Blizzard 2026 continues to blanket the state. Sussex County recorded the highest accumulations, with some areas receiving over 19 inches of snow. The storm has significantly impacted travel and daily activities across the region.

Snowfall totals varied dramatically across Delaware's three counties. New Castle County saw moderate accumulations ranging from 7 to 10 inches, while Kent County received between 13 and 16 inches. Sussex County in southern Delaware bore the brunt of the storm, with measurements reaching nearly 20 inches in several locations.
