Woburn Snowstorm: Schools Close, Trash Pickup Delayed

WOBURN, MA — Woburn schools will be closed Friday due to the predicted snowstorm, Superintendent Matthew Crowley said.

The National Weather Service issued a winter storm warning Thursday that will be in effect 1 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday in Woburn. The service forecasts 5 to 11 inches of snowfall in Woburn from 3 a.m. to 1 p.m. Friday.

Because the state is not counting any remote learning days toward the required 180-day in-person learning requirement this year, snow days 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.
