Area schools closed for 2nd day and looks like some will stay closed tomorrow! I can't remember when school was canceled for two days for weather related reasons.

Seems the wind chills and the high plowed snow at corners. The high school kids begin to catch buses before 6:30 am and they fear the buses would run too late and kids would be standing in the cold too long.
The snow piles make it very difficult for drivers and pedestrians to see if someone is trying to cross at a corner or a car is approaching, not to mention that cars often skid at corners.
Good call, but bad for subs. :(
