With the warmer temperatures the Ice in the city’s rivers,creeks, streams and ponds becomes weaker and more dangerous. Again we ask everyone to stay off the Ice for your own safety and the safety of First Responders.

Please stay off the ice. Aside from it being dangerous and against the law, its extremely deceiving. Please dont take risks that would lead to lifelong regrets. Enjoy the beauty but please stay off the ice.

With the extreme cold weather and ice forming on our water ways, please avoid the temptation of walking on the ice. What looks strong most likely is not. #icewater @PhillyPolice @PhilaOEM @PPDEricGripp @PPDMarineUnit

Believe it or not, the heaviest rain & strongest winds are expected over the next few hours, through 11 PM or midnight. Avoid travel this evening if you can. We've seen numerous reports of flooded roads and trees down. #pawx #njwx #dewx #mdwx
