Another Major Storm: Round Two

[Will E Worm]

Another major storm headed to snowy Mid-Atlantic

Snow blew across the Midwest Tuesday on track for the hard-hit Mid-Atlantic region, where federal government offices were closed for a second straight day and utility workers struggled to restore power knocked out by a weekend blizzard.

The storm hit the Midwest early, closing schools and greeting commuters with slick, slushy roads from Minneapolis and Chicago to Louisville, Ky. Hundreds of flights were canceled at Chicago's airports as the storm moved across Illinois, where up to a foot of snow was forecast.

Powerful winds and snow were expected to hit Mid-Atlantic states by the afternoon, and could leave as much as 20 inches of new snow in Washington and 18 inches near Philadelphia - a Northeast travel hub - by Wednesday night. New York City announced students would have a rare snow day Wednesday, only the third in six years.

Parts of the region were already buried under nearly 3 feet.

Yep, no school here today. This is an extremely rare snow day for us. It's also the first time that I can remember our corporation canceling classes before the storm hit. I'm certainly not complaining, who doesn't like an unexpected day off work? I'm sure my students were happy - we were going to have a grammar quiz today over gerunds and participles. Looks like they get an extra couple of days to study.
