Iowa City School District Announces Two-Hour Delay Again, Feb. 1

A bad week for buses. A good week for sleeping in.


Iowa City School District students, sleep in again, again.

Groundhog Day really must be getting close. Thank goodness.

The Iowa City Community School District has announced that there will be a two-hour delay for school tomorrow morning.

Here is the announcement on the district's Facebook page.

The Iowa City Schools will be on a 2-hour late start schedule on Friday, February 1st.

An overnight windchill advisory has been declared by the National Weather Service in the Quad Cities, which will last until noon tomorrow, with windchill temperatures expected to drop 20 to 30 degrees below zero. Frostbite at these temperatures can occur within a half hour, so bundle up and be careful.

Penn State had much the same creed, and you see what that kind of mindless hero worship led to.

Anything in particular vexing you Maxine? I can't do much about the look but I could help in otherRead More areas.

I have been off the blog since the change. For some reason I couldn't get on. When I would sign in,Read More everything would start flashing and wouldn't stop. Anyway I can't seem to find the regular group and its just confusing. I guess I will get used to it eventually or get so frustrated I give it up.

I can see what you're saying, it's been a bit of a culture shock for the editors as well. We'reRead More working to try to make things easier and more understandable for both regulars and newcomers. The article people seem to be arguing on at the moment is this one: http://iowacity.patch.com/groups/editors-picks/p/iowa-patch-poll-will-iowa-gop-be-able-to-recruit-a-highprofile-candidate-to-challenge-bruce-braley

While i don't support ANYTHING this group does, this isn't right. There is a cancer in the IRS. TheRead More whole organization needs to cleaned out and raise the unemployment rate.

I wouldn't mind seeing *every* group requesting not-for-profit status to be examined. That certainRead More groups are being singled out is inappropriate, whether they be anti-abortion (that's the proper term...we're all "pro-life") or pro-choice or whatever. Examine them all, to the same standards.

No. Didn't work. Okay, now I need to find the article format.
Maria Houser Conzemius June 4, 2013 at 01:55 pm
Can't find the article format. I tried.

I totally agree that "growing old isn't for sissies...its for the strong." I will be 60Read More on my next birthday and although I am not looking forward to leaving my 50's, I must admitt that each year comes with a more calming sensibility to it. I see things more clearly now even though forgetfulness is a daily occurance. The laughter of the children is much prettier and the birds chirping is welcoming instead of a nuisence at 5AM.

For tomorrow? I'll ask them and get back to you.
Stephen Schmidt (Editor) May 31, 2013 at 07:08 pm
As far as I know still going.
