I feel that the schools should stay close for a couple of days until we certain sure that everything is good we have a lots of wind and rain and there is no shelter for the kids to stand under without getting wet of course this is another issue
We have LOTS of bridges large and small along with miles and miles of unpaved or narrow roads on which our School Busses roll every day carrying OUR Precious Children. To close schools until the storm quietens down is a Very Good Move.
Thank you so much for the information!
