I thank all of the systems that are NOT closing today… we strongly advise that school systems remain open despite the severe weather threat. In rural areas, when schools close children are moved from the safest place, a school building, to the worst place, a mobile home, in many cases. Thanks for putting children safety first… it might be a case where some schools have to stay open a little longer than normal due to weather this afternoon, but having kids in an interior hallway in a school building in the event of a tornado warning is very safe….
J.B. and Bill will keep the blog updated through the day… we will have occasional cut-ins on ABC 33/40, and of course we go wall to wall in the event of tornado warnings…
