[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dcps got it right. Making other jurisdictions look foolish[/quote] They probably did get it right because of the timing of the storm -- had the snow started earlier, in the night, there would be icy conditions now and it would be a mess. Because snow started later, it's not particularly icy now, but if they had done a 2 hour delay, the school commute would likely have started during the melt and it would have been a slushy mess. One of the advantages of waiting until the last possible minute to announce, if you are going to announce, is that you can account for that level of nuance. Whereas the districts that close or announce delays the night before might have to live with bad decisions that it's too late to draw back. Perhaps remember that the next time you are complaining about DCPS waiting until 5am to announce.[/quote]
