Breaking: Almost Everything Has Been Postponed Except For SNOWMAGEDDON III
As I type this, the Philebrity email box is filling up with postponement notices for things that were supposed to happen today and tomorrow, from film screenings to school to WWE professional wrestling. The mayor is slated to make an announcement at 4pm regarding other snow announcements.
That said, Philebrity goes hard: If you won tickets through us to see an advance screening of The Wolfman tonight at UA Riverview, that is still on, as is Philebrity Salon (see below).
And in the likely event of yet another blizzard, Philebrity will be posting tomorrow using our ever-popular SNOW DAY format, where we won’t post about anything serious or real, just snow photos (SEND US YOURS TO TIPS[at]PHILEBRITY[dot]COM), music and Big Love and Kell On Earth and so on. Be safe, everybody, and have fun!
UPDATE: SEPTA is already saying it might be borked tomorrow.
UPDATE 2: All City offices will be closed to the public on Wednesday, February 10, 2010, including all recreation centers, libraries and health centers.

ReadynotifyPA says “Over 480 pieces of equipment are expected to be deployed as soon as there is a treatable snowfall, and approximately 18,000 tons of salt are available to be used on city roadways.”
18,000 tons!? Really? Thanks a hella lotta groundwater contamination.
