I will clarify, cannot cancel varsity district games. Can postpone them to another time or date.

I believe that the hope is to get through a lot earlier so that folks can be home before the freeze gets really, really bad. 

I understand your point that cold weather without precipitation should not adversely affect travel.  But we really can't fault school officials for being cautious, even if it may be appear to be overly cautious.

That's exactly what they are trying to do WOS Grad.  It's just not the parents trying to get home safely...but some of these players will be driving after their games and it could be dangerous.  I applaud the schools for being cautious even though it means cancelling ballgames.

[/quote] I agree. Only thing i can think of is the standing water on the sides of the roads will freeze. No Precip til late Thursday into Friday.

[/quote]I believe you are correct Grad.  By moving the Varsity games to an earlier time, the folks that are traveling out of town can get home before it REALLY gets cold.  I believe the schools will error on the side of safety here...nothing wrong with that.

if the weather reports hold up i'd expect to see several cancellations tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see.

I agree bullets.  Twitter is full of school early releases today and a lot of school districts are expecting to make decisions on whether or not they will close tomorrow in the next hour and a half.  Newton has reported already made the decision to close school tomorrow.

If they are closing school, it is doubtful they will play the games.
