The South Shore Line has issued a Winter Weather Advisory regarding the anticipated winter storm, saying the commuter line is closely monitoring conditions as ice and heavy snow can adversely impact track, overhead wire, and other mechanical components. Employees of the South Shore Line will be working continuously to minimize the severe weather impact, the announcement said, and ice-breaker trains may operate in the early morning to de-ice overhead wires prior to rush hour.
“We anticipate train operations to run as scheduled, however any disruptions or changes in service will be promptly posted to our homepage at mysouthshoreline.com , our mobile app, and via email/text notifications,” the advisory said. “Passengers are advised to arrive early at boarding stations, and to exercise caution in parking lots and train platforms. Due to the weather, train delays may be possible, and we appreciate your patience and understanding.”
