Thanks for posting -- DH just told me and I didn't believe him.

Isn't this call a little late? Kids in our neighborhood are already headed to the bus stop.

I see this on the news channels, but I am not seeing it on their website and I have not received the usual email and text. Is there actually a delay?

They called it late so it hasn't made the full rounds yet. It is posted on Facebook and Twitter.

This is how you end up with kids stuck outside alone after their parents have left for work.

I'm a fcps teacher and I just got the email about a minute ago.

Just received the text message about the 2 hr delay.

FCPS needs to make these calls before kids get up for the busses. Making the call after kids bus times is unexceptable!!!

Perhaps someone needs to tell the people who make these calls that middle school kids bus runs start at 6:00 so delay calls need to come by 5:00.

Whether the delay should or should not be is not the issue. How FCPS did it is the issue.

They probably did not know the full extent until the buses were on the road and called in downed trees and the custodians were inthe schools and called in power outages. This was a surprise for everyone.

Based on what the weathermen are saying this morning, the gusts are going to be going all day. I would not be surprised if it turned into a full day cancellation. I think they played it safe.

Have you ever been hit by a 1-2inch branch coming off a tree 100 feet up? I have- worst bruise I have ever had and it lasted two months.

Schools are without power, many classrooms are in trailers, and there are downed trees all over. Smart call.
