Closing Possibility and New Updates

There is a chance for closure in the upcoming weeks, which includes today(above 1%), but it's not due to weather. The weather is warm and nice and not winterish at all! Due to global events(new sickness) that are starting to affect the DMV, there is a chance of closure. Although it's impossible to predict how and what is going to happen if things become worse and spread, schools could close. Many rumors and fake news are flying around saying that MCPS will close, but MCPS went out and said that that news was fake and schools were opened on time, at the moment. However, this could change, although I think schools will stay open for this whole week at least. Things could definitely change and schools will close, or schools will keep on staying open. New info shows that MCPS students could have contact with this novel, new sickness for SSL hours, but it is unlikely that people under the age of 15 will get COVID-19. It is definitely something to watch, though. This winter has been very boring and not that exciting, so I will do my best to keep posting. However, this blog is not going to shut down after March, oh no! I will post about MCPS and this new COVID-19, and mainly, SEVERE WEATHER(tornadoes, severe thunderstorms, hail, etc.). Daily forecasts were delayed, but they should come out soon. I will still keep an eye out for winter weather, although I think it is unlikely we will get any winter weather. This winter ends with 4.8" of snow in Gaithersburg, with 2 traces of snow(unmeasurable snow that sticks to the ground). What a horrible pity... We expected 15-30" of snow, but instead, we got less than 5"(most places got less than 4"). The average snowfall was 16-27" of snow. I have given up on winter. I have hope, but I am starting to think it is useless. I hope this severe weather season will be good and interesting!
