Philadelphia braces for ongoing winter storm with icy conditions and travel disruptions

Roads and sidewalks in the Philadelphia area remain slick and icy after overnight snow, sleet, and freezing rain, with black ice expected overnight. Temperatures will rise above freezing during the day, helping to melt some ice, but conditions will worsen again overnight. The weekend will see continued winter weather, with a milder system arriving Sunday evening into Monday, bringing rain, strong winds, and potential thunderstorms. Travel restrictions are in place due to the storm, and a series of cold and mild days are forecasted for the upcoming week.
