[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 50/50 on if they will go on time tomorrow.

The biggest thing to watch now is the Friday storm.

From Capital Weather Gang:

* Snow showers and very strong winds expected with potent front Friday into Saturday * 
A powerful cold front, set to arrive Friday afternoon and evening, will bring the possibility of snow showers before frigid air returns to the region. And very strong winds, possibly intense enough to trigger power outages, will surge into the area in its wake.
The front’s passage, subject to refinement, will be between 1 and 10 p.m. Friday. The accompanying snow showers, while hit or miss, could briefly be heavy, especially northwest of the Beltway. Some spots could pick up a quick coating.
But the wind will probably be the bigger story. After the front passes, gusts of at least 40 mph are probable late Friday night into Saturday, and could near 50 mph. The National Weather Service says it probably will issue wind advisories and warnings for parts of the area.
The wind “when combined with rapidly falling temperatures will result in dangerously cold wind chills Saturday into Sunday,” the Weather Service wrote in a chat channel for media.

Why?
I doubt snow showers Friday night will affect any decision making for FCPS, unless you are looking at Saturday activitites.[/quote]

As it gets closer, if heavy snow is predicted for 1:00 pm Friday, it puts all the schools in a tough position.  Hopefully the forecast will tighten more on the evening time frame as opposed to the mid-afternoon.  [/quote]
