It seems as if Mother Nature is destined to give us yet another dose of strong winter weather, meaning the area's kids are getting ready to grab their sleds for a day of fun in the snow. Schools have already begun to close Tuesday, and districts will have to make a decision on whether to open Wednesday.
According to the National Weather Service, the area is set to receive over a foot of snow Tuesday. While it likely won't be safe to drive during the likely blizzard on Tuesday, the storm should provide a significant base of snow which will make for good sledding conditions during the rest of the week.
