Icy weather wreaks havoc on trees in Northwest Philadelphia [gallery]

As you probably already know, the icy weather turned Wednesday morning into a slippery, hectic scene for everyone, but particularly commuters.

Just a cursory drive through East Falls, Germantown and West Oak Lane showcased many downed trees (or the branches thereof). NewsWorks snapped a few pictures while fielding tips about other trouble spots in Northwest Philadelphia.

Have you seen any downed trees near you? Please send them in for inclusion in this photo gallery.
