Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) reopening will be delayed by yet another day with tomorrow (Tuesday) being another snow day.
In a message to ACPS families and staff, Superintendent Melanie Kay-Wyatt said tomorrow will be a traditional snow day with no virtual learning.
Alexandria was transformed into a winter wonderland Monday morning.
It was quiet around the city Monday morning, as schools were canceled and local roadways are snow-covered.
Alexandria’s SnowReport website shows that — as of 11:30 a.m. — many of Alexandria’s major roads are in normal or passable condition, though most of the secondary streets remain snow-covered.
Route 1 and Washington Street through Old Down are in “normal” condition. A few major roads in the city are a mix of normal/passable, including:
Students won’t be doing virtual learning tomorrow: it will be a traditional, no-school, honest-to-goodness snow day.
Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) just announced at noon today (Sunday) that, due to anticipated snowfall tonight, there will be no school on Monday.
Alexandria just experienced a brief rush of snowfall.
A Snow Squall Warning was in effect until 4:15 p.m. Friday (Jan. 3), and a Winter Weather Advisory is in effect until 7 p.m.
Alexandria could see snowfall this weekend, starting as early as Friday (tomorrow) afternoon.
A National Weather Service said while tonight (Thursday) will be mostly clear, there’s a chance for rain and snow showers tomorrow (Friday) starting after 1 p.m.
If you haven’t looked outside: it’s snowing in Alexandria.
A light dusting of snow is coming down outside, the first for this season.
Skies are clear and sunny today, but the National Weather Service is warning that tomorrow night (Friday) and Saturday morning could see snow around the area.
The National Weather Service put out a ‘special weather statement’ for Alexandria and many surrounding localities that accumulating snow is possible Friday night.
If you’re thinking of heading out for a drive in the snow, you may want to hold off on that unless you live on one of the city’s arterial roads.
The City of Alexandria’s SnowReport website provides a look at current roadway conditions around Alexandria during a snowstorm.
Somebody in Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) is making the proper sacrifices to the snow gods: Alexandria students and teachers will have another snow day tomorrow (Friday).
Superintendent Melanie Kay-Wyatt said the school system will have another snow day tomorrow — i.e. no virtual learning will take place — after getting one earlier this week on Tuesday. With MLK Day on Monday, ACPS students only attended classes on Wednesday and Thursday.
After getting a snow day on Tuesday, ACPS students and faculty will get a two-hour delay tomorrow (Wednesday) morning.
In a release, Superintendent Melanie Kay-Wyatt said the delay is due to the extreme temperatures and hazardous conditions, with the National Weather Service warning of hazardous conditions as temperatures drop.
