Two-Hour Delays for Most Schools

Friday's snowfall of about four inches caused a two-hour delay at most South Fork schools as crews worked to clear the roads.

The Montauk School was initially on a two-hour delay, but then, around 8:15 a.m., announced a three-hour delay.

The Amagansett, Bridgehampton, East Hampton, Sag Harbor, Springs, and Wainscott School Districts will all begin classes two hours later than usual. The Ross School is also on a two-hour delay. The Springs School's prekindergarten class at Most Holy Trinity has been canceled.

Southampton Town offices opened at 10 a.m.

Stephen Lynch, the East Hampton Town Highway superintendent, kept his followers on Facebook posted on the weather conditions, noting that the roads were slippery. He asked that drivers take their time during the morning commute.  

A winter weather advisory was in effect until 10 a.m. on Friday. More snow may be on the way for the East End. A winter storm watch will be in effect from Saturday morning through late Saturday night with possibly 4 to 7 inches of snow.
