If you see a piece of plywood surrounded by four orange marking sticks at various locations in the City, please do not disturb them. This is actually a method that is used to report snow accumulation to the National Weather Service. These were used during our most recent snow event, and they have been cleared with the anticipation we could see some more snow in the next couple of days. They are placed at four locations throughout the City: Walker Grant Middle School, Dixon Park, Memorial Park, and the Ballfields/ Community Garden across from Wicklow Drive.
Fredericksburg City Public Schools will be closed tomorrow, Wednesday, January 17 due to current wet road conditions in the area that are expected to freeze overnight and stay frozen throughout the day with extremely low temperatures.

FCPS will be closed tomorrow, Tuesday, January 16 due to current weather conditions and uncertain weather forecasts for the morning that include freezing rain or ice that could impact safe travel. Employees are on Code Red.
