Closures and cancellations

Wintry mix mess ices roads, hampers travel; county and state court closed

Tue, 01/24/2017 - 8:00am

    The advice today is, ‘stay home.’ Skies are dropping icy pellets, mixing with sleet and snow, depending on one’s specific location. It’s a classic wintry mix mess, and downed trees are blocking some roads. Schools have cancelled their days, which means sports games and practices are postponed, and municipal offices are either closing or delaying their opening until temperatures warm and the ice turns to an anticipated turnover to rain. Here is a list of current cancellations and delayed openings:

    The Belfast Free Library is closing at 3:30 p.m. today
