Boston schools are closed tomorrow, and based on how things are looking to shake out, I’d be surprised if they weren’t closed Tuesday also. Enjoy an extended February break!

Thoughts on storm: —E. Mass most difficult to pin down —Conservative decision would account for potential shifts that could raise snow totals —Accumulation may mostly come Tue. evening, likely not enough to cancel Wed. Chance of a Snow Day in Boston: Tue 3/14: 55% Wed 3/15: 30%

Way too early for any confidence, but tracking a storm for Monday into Tuesday. Will this be a final shot at a Snow Day this season? Or another flop? Chance of a Snow Day in Boston: Mon. 3/13: 0% Tue. 3/14: 20%

While size of tomorrow’s storm likely doesn’t warrant a Snow Day in Boston, @mayorwu will have to weigh snowy conditions during the morning commute. Heaviest snow expected 5-10am (though not all that heavy in the scheme of storms). Chance of a Snow Day in Boston: Tue. 2/28: 40%

Storm watch: Timing good Mon. night for a snow day on Tuesday, though forecast for the coast still uncertain… looking like ~3-4” of poorly timed snow, but we should know with more confidence Sun. p.m. Possible it turns into a bust. Chance of a Snow Day in Boston: Tue. 2/28: 40%
