I think DCPS will be open. They'll do a 2-hour delay to split the difference since people are going to complain whether they are closed or open.

I drove around to run errands today and the roads are totally fine. They could get a bit icy overnight tonight but if they do a delay and it's sunny again like it was today, there's really no reason to keep kids home again.

Are they going to close on Thursday for the state funeral? I've heard nothing on that so have been assuming they'll be open. Has anyone's school said anything about this?

Our street is the bus route for a Montgomery County school and it has not been plowed. When I saw that it hadn't been plowed by 3pm Tuesday, I was certain there was no way the schools would be open on Wednesday. Dang.

In Maryland the numbered routes are state roads (4, 5, 355, 97, 185) and most of the rest are plowed by the counties. I'm kind of surprised that Montgomery is not getting it done.

I’m a DCPS teacher, and I will be very surprised if we aren’t open, but a delay wouldn’t shock me.

The announcement on Sunday evening happened earlier than on Monday evening. I bet we'll have to wait even later to find out about tomorrow. At this point, I'm hoping for a two-hour delay.
