It is funny to say, but 2-hour delays Thursday and Friday seem like common sense. What a rollercoaster the last two weeks are.

I think they will announce whatever they decide for tomorrow, even if it is opening on time. So yes, still on the table. And I think they will delay both Thursday and Friday. All the meeting happening now will freeze overnight.

They announced it at 2:30


Oh you're right, I was thinking of the day before when it was almost 6pm before they announced. Sorry!

???? They announced it around 2:30 on 2/3 for the 2/4 school day. As of 1:30 on 2/4, there has been no announcement for 2/5


It was in response to the assertion that MCPS waited until evening to make the call yesterday

Me again. Not that I think MCPS should implement a 2hr delay just for that. This is for BCC high school, so the kids can manage, and in daylight and with cars slowing down because they're in an urban space, I guess it's "fine". But... the gross snow shoveling incompetence just irritates me.

I wish they would announce it earlier because as a teacher it is hard to plan lessons not knowing what the schedule is going to be

Yes, still have missing lanes on major road as well as kids needing to walk in streets. In addition, any melting today will refreeze overnight.
