Storm Blair: Schools Shut in 13 U. S. States

USAMonday, January 6, 2025

A powerful winter storm, named Blair, has caused schools to close in 13 different states across the U. S. From the Midwestern states to the East Coast, the storm has brought freezing temperatures and heavy snow, making roads impassable and travel challenging. Missouri and Indiana are among the states hit hardest by the snow, with some areas forecasting more than a foot of snowfall. Major cities like Kansas City and Indianapolis have closed schools to protect students.

Governors in Kentucky and West Virginia have even declared states of emergency due to the severe conditions. The storm has also affected the nation's capital, Washington D. C. , on the same day President-elect Donald Trump was scheduled to meet with Congress. Authorities are advising people to stay indoors and keep an eye on local news for updates.
