Ahead of this past weekend’s winter storm, NBC4 meteorologist Chuck Bell set expectations for an extended regional shutdown as the system approached the DC area, saying he did not believe a single school district in the DMV would be open for even one day this week. On Monday, Bell doubled down on that assessment, saying there is a “very high chance that school closures could go a long way into the week.”
