Portsmouth cancels school today [Updates]

Portsmouth Supt. Lynn Krizic dropped the robocall at 5:45 am that schools would be closed today "due to a change in weather conditions this morning and potentially unsafe roads." Really?

Thanks to Sandy at Patch for the prompt (and story), and thanks to everyone who jumped on the Facebook thread last night.

Updates: The Sakonnet Times picked up the story, and Portsmouth Patch updated their story from last night.
