School closures and delays effecting hard hit Kenosha and Racine

CBS 58

Though only effecting a small portion of the area, the heavy lake effect snow is causing some serious delays and even school closures Monday morning.

A large closure in the area includes Kenosha Unified School District who states that the heavy lake effect snow is "making the clearing of parking lots and sidewalks extremely difficult. Road conditions across the area are also poor, with falling, blowing, and drifting snow creating hazardous travel."

Also, Gateway Technical College has posted on their social media channels that the Racine and Kenosha campuses will be delayed in opening this morning, stating that "Kenosha will open at 10 a.m., and Racine will open at noon. The Elkhorn Campus and Gateway's HERO, Horizon, and iMET Center locations will open normally.

Other notable closures include Shoreland Lutheran High School, St. Joseph Catholic Academy, Kenosha Lutheran Academy, and All Saints Catholic School Kenosha.

Additionally, St. Mary Catholic Church in Kenosha is closed for the day and mass is cancelled, though the church encourages all to stay safe.
