Record Cold in Philadelphia, College Applications Decline, Love Park Plan

The weather roller coaster will have the thermometer in a free fall this afternoon. This morning the temperature at the airport was 59 degrees. In the next 12 hours the temperature will drop 50 degrees with wind chills well below zero. This evening everything will freeze solid and tomorrow we expect the coldest weather Philadelphia has seen in 20 years.

Budget cuts are affecting the college application process for high school seniors. Philly.com reports that at prestigious Central High there’s a two week wait to see a counselor. At many schools, the ratio of students to counselors is over 600 to one. Remaining counselors work nights and weekends to help as many students as possible, but counselors are warning colleges that all applications won’t have letters of recommendation.

The Love Park plan for restaurants and a band shell proposed by City Council President Darrell Clarke may run contrary to ordinances at the local, state and federal levels that protect city owned parkland. Opposition to the plan is growing among those who are defending what is currently open space in the city, something in short supply in Philadelphia.
