Didn't they post their decision at 11pm once? It's like they try to post at any time other than a reasonable hour whether its 11pm or 4 am

CWG: WINTRY mix update: Temperatures are running a degree or two colder than expected this evening, which may allow for the wintry mix to extend a little farther south and east than previously forecast as it arrives between 5 and 7 a.m. Tuesday
2-hour delay doesn't mean they will be in school in late June.

Most kids don't go to school during the last week of school anyway. The roads will be dangerous tomorrow. And kids will be cold. Let them have a little excitement with the first snow day of the school year, Jeez

DCPS didn't get canceled or delayed. Doubt FCPS will.

Thats what's the most frustrating. They sent out an email saying they didnt make a decision yet but they completely omitted that they goofed. A simple "Earlier this evening, we inadvertently uploaded an operating status message for tomorrow indicating a decision had been made. This was an error. Fcps continues to watch the weather and will make a decision no later than ____ am." Would have gone a long way.
^this. FCPS NEVER will admit a mistake.

No one is saying they should cancel. They should call the 2 hour delay and everyone can proceed with plans and be prepared for a successful, slightly shorter school day. It's not a huge deal and is prudent.

100%
It is "iffy." You shouldn't cancel tonight for "iffy."
Make contingency plans. But, it is foolish to cancel if not needed.
