Conditions will be reassessed in the morning and if closure is necessary will be announced by approximately 6:15 am.

Well, this was in the email from FCPS, which leads me to think that the delay may not be the final word.

Where did you hear this rumor?

^^FCPS closing and delays have corresponded with EVERY County surrounding us. Except for 1 day during the snowzilla --1 day difference! MCPS even had a two hour delay last week and FCPS did not.

2 hours late tomorrow.

This is now our third year in a row of shitty winter weather. That is a trend. Not just one winter in 5.

We do need to get it together and better deal with small events, at least.

Except for a freak storm, it has been a very mild winter. And the freak storm melted fast. This has not been a bad winter so far.

I agree. So WTF so they keep closing or delaying school?!? I would have no winter complaints of we could just all carry on. Aside from the M,T, W after the blizzard, everything else has been poppycock.

It's a 2 hour delay. Just announced

Much more? I saw on the news Fredericksburg got about 6", which is not much more than Burke.

It snowed at the END of January. 1 big storm. One really awlful cold spell that lasted 3 days. And 3-4 inches today mid February. Our winter will be over soon. I would not call it a horrible winter. You can not spend tons of extra money for 2 months out of the year. Most of these Northeast and Northwest states experience 4-5 months of winter(double the amount of ours)

Spotsylvania, Stafford, Fredericksburg are closed tomorrow. Isn't it supposed to warm from south to north?
