Tewksbury Snowstorm: Schools Closed, Winter Storm Warning Issued

TEWKSBURY, MA — Tewksbury Public Schools will be closed Friday for a traditional snow day, the district said in response to predicted heavy snowfall.

The National Weather Service issued a winter storm warning that will be in effect 1 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday in Tewksbury. The service forecasts 4 to 9 inches of snowfall in Tewksbury from 3 a.m. to noon Friday.

Because the state is not counting any remote learning days toward the required 180-day in-person learning requirement this year, all snow days across Massachusetts will be traditional snow days, unlike the hybrid or remote days some districts had last year.

The state is also closing all "Stop the Spread" coronavirus testing sites on Friday.

Local restrictions

This story will be updated throughout the day Thursday and Friday with the latest measures.
