♠ Posted by channel-top-news in ,,,,,,, at 09:10

The school day got off to a later start than normal for some students in Berks County on Thursday.


A handful of the county's 18 public school districts delayed the start of classes by two hours in order to give road crews enough time to make sure the roads were safe and clear of snow and ice.


Most districts sent their students home early Wednesday, ahead of the storm that coated the area with an inch or two of snow during the afternoon and early evening hours.


Snowfall totals provided by the National Weather Service are:


Kutztown: 2.2 inches

Blue Marsh Dam: 2 inches

Hamburg: 1.8 inches

Mohnton: 1.5 inches

Mertztown: 1.5 inches

Southwest Reading: 1.3 inches

Huffs Church: 1.3 inches

Shillington: 1.3 inches


Berks County will get the chance for more snow from another storm set to make its presence known on Saturday. Get the latest weather forecast from the 69 News StormCenter on WFMZ.com.
