Status Details
2-Hour Delay School starts 2 hours later than normal. Bus pickups are also delayed by 2 hours. Morning half-day programs are usually canceled.
Remote Learning Day Physical buildings are closed, but students are expected to log in for virtual instruction.
Closed (Code Red/Blue) No school for students. Essential personnel may still be required to report depending on the specific “Code” issued by the district.

The Decision-Making Process

Superintendents in cities like Virginia Beach, Norfolk, and Portsmouth typically begin monitoring road conditions as early as 3:30 AM. They consult with Super Doppler 10 meteorologists and local police to determine if buses can safely navigate neighborhoods. Most decisions are finalized and broadcast by 6:00 AM.
