High winds buffeted Delaware during the afternoon of the 31st. Numerous tree limbs, trees and power lines were knocked down. Delmarva Power and Light reported about 40,000 homes and businesses lost power in their service area including Delaware. Power was last restored to homes in New Castle County as late as January 2, 2009. Delaware Electric Cooperative reported about 1,900 homes and businesses lost power in Kent and Sussex Counties.

A cooperative observer's weather station measured a wind gust of 63 mph from the southwest at 11:30 am MST. Other reports in the area showed winds gusting to 45-55 mph during the late morning and early afternoon hours.
A wintry mix of mainly freezing rain and some sleet fell during the first half of the day across Kent and New Castle Counties in Delaware. Plain rain fell farther to the south.  Around two tenths of an inch of ice accrued on exposed surfaces and took down some weak power lines. Delmarva Power and Light reported about 1,400 homes and businesses lost power in their service area. The greatest concentration in Delaware was around Dover. Untreated roadways were treacherous. Because this occurred on a Sunday morning, the number of reported accidents was relatively low. Speed restrictions were placed on Interstate 495 in New Castle County.
The wintry mix was caused by a low pressure system that moved from the Mississippi Valley on the morning of the 20th east into southwest Ontario Province on the morning of the 21st. A secondary low pressure system formed on the system's triple point over North Carolina that morning and moved northeast passing Cape Cod as it became the primary low pressure system early in the evening on the 21st. The secondary low pressure system helped maintain surface winds from the northeast and kept temperatures below freezing until the event ended on the morning of the 21st.
