Tuesday Snow Day?

For those of you not already on break, we might have a developing snow situation for Tuesday, the last day of school before December break.

It's not going to be a lot of snow, but it might just be enough to affect the school day. The models took a nice turn in our favor and are both now showing a 2-3" of snow from a storm system that will move in from the Great Lakes area late Monday night or early Tuesday morning.

Because it's a clipper-type of storm, it will not have lot of moisture to work with. But it might just be enough for snow days or releases given the excellent timing. As of today the snow is expected to start falling before the morning commute and continue through the day, which would lead to slippery driving for the afternoon bus runs.

Given the low snow total, we should be cautious not to get too excited about the prospects of a snow day or an early release. (While an early release is often a giant hassle, Tuesday might be the one great time for an early day as most families are already getting into vacation mode. We'll have more on Superintendents and their decision tomorrow.)

Our collective eyebrows are definitely raised, which means the GSD Staff will be monitoring the developments 'round the clock from this point forward. Many more details to follow.
