Polar Bear Plunge, Winter Storm Warning, PennDot Asks Cooperation During Road Cleanup

Annual Polar Bear plunges on New Year's Day have become more popular as fundraisers in recent years. Yesterday, the 23rd annual Polar Bear plunge in Atlantic City attracted hundreds of people to strip down and take the plunge into water temperatures in the 40's. Organizers dispute the notion that exposure to extreme elements makes you susceptible to colds. The event raises thousands of dollars for the Multiple Sclerosis Association.

A winter storm warning is in effect for the Philadelphia region. Tonight a cold front sweeping in from the west will collide with moisture coming from our south. New England will get the worst of this storm with 2 feet possible in Boston. Around Philadelphia, we expect 3 to 6 inches between tonight and daybreak Friday, more to the North, less to the South.

PennDOT is asking for cooperation from motorists during the snow storm tonight and tomorrow morning. The temperatures will turn very cold, down to single digits. And high winds will cause blowing and drifting making clearing the roads very challenging. Give the plows plenty of room on the roads, slow down, and don’t go out at all unless you have to.

Sports
Tonight the Flyers are in Colorado. City Six, Penn visits George Mason.

Weather
Rain changing to snow South to North will leave 3 to 6 inches in your neighborhood. Low 30’s in Center City.
