[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's too early to tell, OP. Since Monday is closed already, it would take at least 6 inches on Sunday in a large swathe of MoCo to affect the Tuesday school day, and/or a re-icing event Monday night. [/quote]

I agree it's too early to tell, but it does seem to take forever for MoCo to get back to school after a snow event, and only a small area of the county needs to be affected for them to call it for everyone.  Unless it misses us entirely, I think a delay or (more likely) closure on Tuesday is fairly likely.[/quote]
I don't think it's too early to tell. Pretty certain that at least part of the county will get 4+ inches of snow throughout the day Sunday. That means plowing won't happen until Monday with "assessing things" Monday evening. The county as a whole has never been able to clear 4+ inches of snow everywhere in one day. I predict closure on Tuesday for sure, with the biggest problem area being the elementary school lots because people parked in them to get of the neighborhood roads and the lots can't be cleared.

If we get 8+ inches then closed Wednesday also. It takes at least 3 days to clear that much.[/quote]
