I wish they would just call it. Obviously little to no cleanup nor natural melting is going to happen before the morning (or in the additional 2 hours), and we know that clean sidewalks is a deciding factor for them.

Just call it already. Its a mess out there.

Is it?

The posted totals are an inch at National and an inch in falls church.

An inch on roads with ZERO salt because it rained for hours before

Once daylight comes and the roads get traffic it will be gone quickly.

If they close school, I suspect by mid-day tomorrow that will look like a dumb call. Probably won't stop them however. We've all gotten very used to knowing the night before. I'm pretty surprised they are waiting. It's almost as if they want children to go to school.

I wouldn’t recommend going for a drive right now. That said, the snow will stop well before 5am, so I hope they wait until morning to decide instead of following Fairfax.

no they didn't. a bunch of schools weren't even plowed out yet. how were they suposed to open?

Yeah they did at the next school board meeting. For poor communication. Because many people were shocked they were closed Monday after they had plenty of time to plow their schools out and hadn’t done it and after they did nothing all weekend and still waited until late Sunday afternoon to notify of closure.

Roads are fine as of now.

I was just out. This is a very wet, heavy snow and roads are already slick. APS will close.

Our roads are actually getting kind of bad too

Fairfax closed. We’re done.
