Monday, February 19, 2021 – File snow school bus
Ocean County school districts have started calling for closures and delayed openings for Friday day due to a winter storm expected to drop 3 to 6 inches of snow across much of New Jersey.
The heaviest snow is expected during the school day from mid-morning to mid-afternoon, according to the latest updates from the National Weather Service. The weather service had issued alerts for 15 counties ahead of the storm.
