Yeah, I don’t think so either. The problem is it will barely get above freezing today, just long enough for the ice to melt a little then re-freeze. It won’t be above freezing for a significant length of time until after 10am tomorrow. I don’t think anything will be safely navigable until then.

I'm upgrading to a full closure tomorrow. Neighborhood streets are still untouched.

This is their map of what has been done. But, even my neighborhood, which is supposedly fully plowed, is barely passable.

As of Monday night, the roads and streets are still pretty awful.

They will be closed in my opinion.

They'll definitely delay, and if they can justify it at all they will close

+1. To a certain extent APS is first dependent on the County to clear roads. Homeowners have a legal responsibility to clear their sidewalks within 24hrs of snow stopping. If the county can't clear the streets, whether APS has sufficient staff becomes irrelevant.

Imagine that- staffing issues due to COVID positives. But that won’t happen with school staff because kids need to be in school.

I think so based on the lack of plowing I’ve seen.
