The snow emergency ended at noon Tuesday.
Here are the full details from the City of Philadelphia:
Crews will continue snow operations until all conditions are safe for travel.
All primary and secondary streets have been made passable. Crews plowed the roads overnight and will be focusing efforts on servicing residential streets that have not been plowed. Crews will continue to work throughout the remainder of the week to service all roads.
Residents can submit requests for salting and plowing to 311 beginning Wednesday, February 3 at noon. Crews will remain on duty to monitor road conditions and respond to service requests of impassable streets or icy conditions.
Reminders for residents
- Do not shovel or plow snow into the street. This practice is illegal, unsafe and hinders snow operations.
- Clear a sidewalk path at least 36 inches wide within six hours of the end of the storm.
- Clear snow from neighborhood sewer drains to allow melting snow to drain.
- Motorists should allow extra time, exercise patience and maintain safe driving distances.

Residents should contact the ACCT Philly hotline (267-385-3800 ext. 1) if they observe a dog outside during extreme cold (aside from bathroom breaks and short walks). It is against City ordinance to leave dogs outside in extreme cold without proper shelter, and owners can be fined up to $500.
Fallen Trees
The Department of Parks & Recreation reminds residents that if a tree falls during a storm and it's blocking a road, or it has fallen on a house, car or other property, call 911. A crew of arborists from Philadelphia Parks & Recreation are on-call to respond to tree emergencies and they will come out to remove the hazard and any part of the tree that is an immediate risk to public safety. Other parts of the tree that don't pose an immediate risk (such as tree trunks and stumps) will be removed at a later time so crews can focus on other safety hazards around the city during extreme weather events.
In the event that a tree has fallen on electrical wires, please call PECO's emergency line: 1-800-841-4141.
For other non-emergency downed trees, residents can submit a request through Philly311.
Information for Businesses
All property owners and/or tenants are responsible for clearing a 36 inch path on all sidewalks, including curb cuts, abutting the building or premises within six hours after the snow has ceased to fall-even if the establishment is temporarily closed due to snow or COVID-19 restrictions. A fine of $50 or more can be imposed in violation of this code.
Establishments with outdoor dining need to take additional precautions. All outdoor dining setups should be secured, removing as much of the setups as possible-including tables, chairs, heating equipment, temporary structures. As noted in the City's winter guidelines for outdoor dining, the City is not liable for any damage from plowing or snow removal, even if structures are permitted. Materials should be cleared from the right of way as much as possible to avoid possible damage and blocking of dining setups. Restaurants with unpermitted structures are reminded that their establishment is liable for any injuries suffered due to damage from the structure during and after the storm.
Philadelphia Prisons
All Philadelphia Department of Prisons facilities remain closed to civilian visitors due to COVID-19 precautions.
