Back to normal ... well, almost

Philadelphia Inquirer | 02/17/2007 | All Pa. interstates reopen:
"The barriers came down and Interstates 78, 80 and 81 were opened to all traffic at 4 p.m. today, ending an embarrassing saga for Pennsylvania's transportation department."

The Interstates re-opened with a reduced speed limit of 45 due to some remaining slick patches. There is a 30% chance of a small accumulation of snow Sunday and a 50% chance for Monday. Temperatures remain frigid.

In Hamburg this morning, the borough had to start closing streets a block at a time so that snow removal contractors could load snow and ice into dump trucks to haul it out of the town. Meanwhile PennDoT began to turn its attention back to some of the local roads that are state maintained. Very few merchants have managed to clear the sidewalks in front of their stores.
