Just 2 hour delays
Wind was fierce last night. Woke up a 3:30 am and watched news rest of morning. At about 4 am it was -18 degrees with wind chill.
When I went to get the paper front porch was a snow drift and front yard barely had any snow left on it.
Glad last night wasn't garbage nite, or our entire plan would have garbage cans thown about.

closed here too! not surprising! I drove my wife to work and the roads were definitely bad. At the moment though, my kids are on a 2 hour delay. I'll be keeping a close watch on it because sometimes they decide to close at the last minute.
