What the buzz regarding schools in the Charlotte, Lee, Collier and other Southwest Districts? It is my thought that there may be cancellations on Friday to allow people to get ready or get out of Dodge! :eek:

Not seeing anything about school closing yet, but football games are being moved up a day.

Of course, others in the SW FL area probably know better news sites to check. :)

If the possibility of Tampa still being hit exsists tomorrow then the decision will be made to close pasco county schools unless evacuation orders are issued sooner.
