I just dropped my kids off at Janney. There is nowhere near six inches here.

Same. The mayor should’ve closed the schools. Can’t wait for her to be gone

Lololol. No.

The roads are completely fine. School should have started on time. The rest of the DC government, outside of schools, had to report on time this morning.

It is melting away quickly.

2 hour delay was the perfect call.

Spring Valley, Wesley Heights -- same.

We live on Fessenden by Pete’s pizza. So not far from Janney. If we had 1.5” i’d be amazed. I jus ran the shovel down the sidewalk and cleared a path. Easy peasy. So weird to have such a large difference jus a few blocks away.

I have a lot of sidewalk and one section had literally nothing and another had about 4 inches. Tree cover made a huge difference apparently.

School sidewalks were untouched about 9:30 though. Seems like a delay was a perfectly fine way to deal with the desire to clear sidewalks before students arrived.

Agree. A delay also keeps rush-hour from becoming a cluster.

I must say that I’m coming around to DCPS’s way of calling it late. I would be so pissed if I were an MCPS parent and school was closed for this nothingburger.

+1. I am in Spring Valley and we got <2 inches and it's basically gone of roads & sidewalks already. No idea what folks are talking about with 6 inches. That's a flat out lie.

Roads were fine and perfectly drivable. Closing schools would have been ridiculous.

We didn't even need the delay.
