Homework for Wednesday

WINTER WEATHER UPDATE (slightly updated for the night)
Yang Li

WINTER STORM WARNING IN EFFECT
5-7" possible tomorrow morning through evening
Here we go again... A moderate winter storm will march in tomorrow morning, dumping 4-7 inches in our area, with us on the North Shoren receiving the heavier end of that 4-7 inches. Flurries should be here slightly after 10 AM and steady snow will begin after Noon, becoming heavy by noon. The brunt of the storm will be between noon and 7. Given the fact that an early dismissal doesn't count in any way against the state's attendance requirement, I believe the administration will be willing call for that. Early dismissal is officially listed as a 10 AM deal, which will be before the heavy snow gets here, but you must consider the Junior High Schools and the Elementary Schools, not to mention that to have regular dismissal in the worst part of the storm would be a disaster waiting to happen. However, at this point, the intensification process may begin rather late and it is less certain that an early dismissial will happen. I'll give early dismissal a 60% chance. A snow day gets a 5% chance, so despite the late starting time of the snow, the district has made two odd decisions already this season, so I wouldn't rule it out. The remaining 35% receives the nothing category. Finally, I'm personally forecasting a stronger-than-expected intensification process once the low pressure center begins tapping into the moist Atlantic air.

If you're thinking about going to the Sophmore dance, money is due by Friday...check comments for more details.

I disagree with your prediction. Obviously a delayed opening would be pointless so lets rule that out. There can be a early dismissal, a snow-day, or just a regular day. The district very rarely plans an early dismissal ahead of time. Based on the forecast, I believe the decision is between a regular day of school and a snow-day. Keeping in mind that this would be our last snow-day before cutting into vacation time, as well as the timing and intensity of the storm (especially in terms of visibility), my prediction is as follows:
.5% planned early dismissal
.5% delayed opening
63% snow-day
36% normal day

Responding to previous comments, I have averaged the predictions of a number of sources, including the government's NOAA service and the major channels. 4-7" inland is a predict of CBS 2 but ABC 7 and NOAA are going with an even higher 5-8" for us wheras NBC 4 is a middle-of-the-road 4-7".
