[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This all seems very odd to me. Normally this type of weather forecast would never be enough to close schools. What's different?[/quote] It's that the worst of the weather (along with likely floods) will be arriving as the usual rush hour/end of day traffic is peaking. MCPS has significantly more bus transportation of students and just generally more transportation logistics to worry about, as well as some parts of the county that are significantly more rural than D.C., so I'm not surprised they closed early while D.C. didn't.[/quote] Aside from the hurricane, have there been other storms that have closed MCPS early? I realize you may not have this information.[/quote]
