99% chance of closure.

There is a lot of anger. I thought they closed because of the backlash of not closing but now they will have to open because of the backlash of being closed!

0 chance

Or, they'll decide to open on Tuesday even though the roads are in the same conditions as Monday and just pretend that that makes sense.

They will open because the closure today is performative bullshit.

Yeah and someone read the SACC snow policy and realized they can’t force unscheduled full day coverage.

I wonder if they would have closed tomorrow if they knew in advance that they could not open SACC. I can't understand how they didn't already know that. The county is not going to spend the money to pay the SACC staff all day even if they could make it work logistically. They already took away some of the holidays where they used to stay open.

Performative for who??

They have to open and should have opened tomorrow because the conditions on the sidewalks and busstops are not going to materially change in the next week or two. The storm was wrapping up this time a week ago and that's just to be how it is until it melts.

Exactly what I think MCPS is going to do, even though they stressed sidewalks/bus clearance on side streets/SN buses that go door to door.

Yup, 2 hour delay Tuesday. Nothing has to make sense. They’ll claim that the 34 degree weather solved all of Monday’s problems.

The sidewalks and bus stops are non-existent. It was the right call. This was an extraordinarily unusual storm.

They really need to get on the horn and give specific route numbers to VDOT

What are the chances schools will be closed Tuesday?
