Sorry for this random thread, but needed to ask a question to the philly people and figured this would have more traffic than the pennsylvania section. I was supposed to be heading into philly tonight for a show, I was just curious as to how the roads are down there? I've been checking weather.com but since I really never go to philly, I have no idea how the roads usually are. Wanted to get a heads-up to see if my vert will make it. Going to be around the Theater of Living Arts if that helps haha. Thanks guys.

im in suburb about 45 minutes from the city... so take this as you want

my streets normally dont get plowed until all the main roads are plowed at least 2 or 3 times. right now, they've been plowed and the sun is out drying whats wet. I'm not sure how much snow the city ended up with but i feel like anything that hasn't been plowed, the sun/wind may be working on. ice is probably definite for later tonight though.

good luck whatever you decide

Alright. I wouldn't be down there til like 7pm, but I wouldn't be heading home til 11-12 at the earliest. Just don't want to get stuck there.

id spend the money to park in a lot or a parking garage just to be safe

you won't get stuck here, everything is pretty good, just wet at this point. What show are you going to? If you're going to the sports complex in south philly you won't have anything to worry about (I'm at my office a mile away, roads are fine)

streets in the city are clear. other than the snow piles from the prior storm a weeks back everything is back to normal from today. you will be fine going to the TLA tonight.

i live and close pretty close to the TLA. it was snowy and wet earlier but with salting and traffic this morning, the streets are clear.

I'm going to the twiztid show tonight at the TLA. I hate them, and don't even want to go, but the gf already has a ticket and likes them, thus, I am stuck going. Guess I'll just head down and hopefully not have any issues.

twiztid show? i think you "just got stuck" pulling out your driveway!
