A new winter storm has started to affect the Washington area and students were released early on Wednesday. The storm will continue to pound our area through Friday. Up to a ten inches of snow is possible. Here is what Silver Chips Online is currently predicting.
School has already been cancelled for today, Wednesday, February 19, and with over two feet of snow still on many residential roads in Silver Spring, students may be off for Thursday as well.
On Friday, Montgomery County got its fifth snow cancellation and tacked on an extra day of school to the end of the year as a result. When Blazers wake up Monday morning, they may be able to roll over, hit the snooze alarm, and go back to sleep because it looks like more snow might be headed our way.
The groundhog saw his shadow on the 2nd signaling six more weeks of winter. Today the weather people apparently sat up and took notice because they're warning us of possible snow over the next two days. The last several editions of snoWatch have ended in disappointment, but it looks like this time around the snow is ready to fall.
No one saw it coming but there it was. When Blazers got up on Tuesday they found snow on the ground and ice on their car windows. However, with the exception of a burst pipe, the school day went as planned. Now there's a prediction of more to come. Are the weather people on target this time? Stay tuned to find out . . .
We've come across yet another week of school that just might have a snow day in store for us. As was the case in the last edition of snoWatch, the chances of cancelled school are slim, but then again, we're talking about meteorology, not an exact science. . .
