Some Area Schools Reopen as Icy Roads Keep Others Closed

Some students are easing back into class, while others remain sidelined by icy roads. Northumberland County schools reopened with a two-hour delay. Lancaster County returned to a normal schedule, joining Middlesex County and Mathews County, which were already back to regular operations. But Richmond County and Essex County remain closed because of lingering ice on roadways. District officials say safety is the priority as crews continue monitoring conditions.
