Check Snowstorm Delays, Closures in Ardmore Area

Township libraries will open late Saturday.

The winter storm sweeping up the East Coast on Friday has prompted several postponements in the Ardmore area. (Find the National Weather Service's updated forecast here.)

Lower Merion Township libraries and the Ardmore Avenue Community Center will open at noon Saturday, because of expected overnight snow and ice, township spokesman Tom Walsh announced Friday afternoon.

"The late openings will give Township Public Works employees time to ensure that whatever snow that has fallen is plowed, with roads and municipal parking lots cleared," Walsh said in a statement to media.
