List of school closings, delays Friday in North Jersey as snowstorm hits region

With snow in the forecast overnight and Gov. Phil Murphy declaring a state of emergency statewide, North Jersey school districts have altered their plans for Friday.

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for the area from 12 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Friday. The forecast calls for 3 to 5 inches in some areas.

The NWS warns: "Plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions will impact the morning commute."

Icy roads wreaked havoc on Wednesday morning's commute, leaving one dead and others injured amid hundreds of accidents in the state.

"We’re closely monitoring the upcoming winter weather. With snow and high winds in the forecast, we urge all New Jerseyans to stay off the roads, stay home, and stay safe," Murphy tweeted after announcing the state of emergency.

The storm won't affect all schools as nearly a third of schools in New Jersey have switched to remote learning amid a surge of COVID cases.
