Schools on the Isle of Man will be open as normal today.
The Department of Education and Children says the decision to keep them open is made in the best interests of the children.
The department monitors and communicates with Bus Vannin, Department of Infrastructure and Ronaldsway Met Office to determine whether it's safe to allow children to attend school.
It says it's a huge operation to close schools in light of bad weather.
Andrew Shipley is the legal and administration manager - he says health and safety is one of the most important factors:
