Washoe County School District has canceled classes for Thursday due to weather and road conditions, but students in Incline Village will engage in online distance learning.

It’s a normal schedule for Lake Tahoe, Douglas County and Tahoe Truckee unified school districts on Thursday. LTUSD warns that buses may be a little late due to chaining up.

“Our maintenance and transportation teams were out at 4:00 this morning assessing roads and campuses, snow plows are up and running and the forecast looks light today,” the district said on Facebook. “Please drive safely. We look forward to seeing our students this morning at our regular school times.”

For its lake routes on Thursday, Douglas County is using main bus stops.

Cold and dry will be the name of the game heading into the weekend, the service said. Light winds, snow cover, and clear skies for Friday and Saturday mornings will result in very cold temperatures, with lows 15-20 degrees below average. There will also be areas of freezing fog for the typical culprits: Truckee and Martis Valley and Sierra Valley.

The service said the region should expect dry conditions with a hint of a pattern shift near the end of the month.
