Just a reminder of another way to check school closures. Probably not as accurate as MFR but every little bit helps.

Can anyone confirm if North School in Wick is closed?

Hubby said he heard it was closed on MFR, but it doesn't appear on either of these sites?

I saw the forecast this morning and it predicted between 5 and 10 cms would fall in this area. As there is no wind it was forecast that there would be large accumulations. Dosent the school check the forecast. What a shambles. I feel sorry for people who work and now have to reorganise their day because of their children being sent home. They should have had the day off.

heard that lorries are jack knifed at Dunbeath and the Braes are not good. No doubt things will change frequently though through out the day. The advice is certainly to stay at home unless your journey is absolutely necessary

I wish I didn't bother putting my kids to school today. I am not working today but it has been a hassle. Suppose it's hard to know what to do for the best for all parties concerned.

Put it down to a common ailment that comes about when your hands and brain work at a different speed. Think the medical term for it is fishedpingersitus.

Oh well, looks like we've got another day of kids throwing snowballs tomorrow!! [para]

But is it correct,for example it says" Wick High school will close at 12.00 for bad weather." but why open it in the morning and not the afternnon when they dont know what tomorrow will bring. So I was wondering are they getting messages for tomorrow mixed up with what happened today.
