Weather Related Mass Transit Issues, Airport Delays

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) --- The inclement weather and icy conditions Monday have caused several travel issues on roads, at the airport and on mass transit lines.

Icy roads can make for a difficult commute, and while the majors have been treated, a lot of side roads, sidewalks and parking lots are completely frozen over Monday morning.
