| Snow Emergency To Be Declared At 11 A.M. Sunday |
| A Snow Emergency will go into effect tomorrow at 11 a.m. until further notice. A Winter Weather Advisory has been issued by the National Weather Service with a forecast of 4-6 inches of snow. Public Works crews have brined main roads in anticipation of the storm and plow trucks are prepared to clear streets. Snow Emergency The Township has changed its Snow Emergency guidelines. During a snow emergency, parking is prohibited on all streets in Whitpain until snow has been plowed for the width of the street. This guideline applies to all streets, except those where only on-street parking is available. In this situation, vehicles should be parked on the even-numbered side of the street on even-numbered calendar days and on the odd-numbered side of the street on odd-numbered calendar days. Thank you for your cooperation with this change. Snow Management Plan The Township's Snow Management Plan guides the snow removal operations. Click here to review the Snow Management Plan Winter Storm Tips 1. Please remove trash cans from roads. Plows must go around trash cans and other obstructions, which prevents curb-to-curb plowing. 2. Please wait until plows clear your street to shovel your driveway apron. This will help prevent your driveway from being plowed in. 3. As you shovel, please clear fire hydrants near your property and make sure your mailbox is accessible. Please clear 3 feet around the hydrant. 4. Please leave at least 100 feet between your car and snow plowing equipment. 5.

Call 911 to report an emergency during a storm. 7. To report a power outage, please call PECO at 1-800-841-4141 or report the outage online. Do not assume that a neighbor has already called PECO.
