Looks like we had some delays regionally as a result of snow showers passing through the area. Snow has concluded, so I am not anticipating further delays to occur. Only Pocono Mountain in Monroe County delayed for tomorrow; regionally, elevated schools such as DV have delayed.

🧥 Dry conditions and clear skies are expected tonight but it will feel quite cold out. Wind gusts tonight will be lower compared to Sunday night but still breezy with gusts up to 25-35 mph. Wind chills will be in the single digits for most as a result. #PAwx #NJwx #DEwx #MDwx
Forecast graphic for tonight. Low temperatures mainly in the teens with lingering wind gusts of 25-35 mph will lead to single digit wind chills for most locations. A Cold Weather Advisory is in effect for Carbon and Monroe counties in PA where wind chills well into the teens below zero are expected.

FINAL Prediction for Tuesday, February 18, 2025. Cold wind chills, combined with isolated black ice and spotty power outages, may be enough to cause school delays. Details: vogtweatherwatcher.com/2025/…

So far only Pocono Mountain has delayed, which is actually a bad sign for the other Monroe County districts if you are rooting for delays tomorrow. This could very well be a situation where only Pocono Mountain delays for tomorrow.
