Both Bedford Central and Chappaqua Schools are operating on an early dismissal schedule for Mon. Jan. 28.

The National Weather Service has issued a winter weather advisory for the Lower Hudson Valley and forecast icy travel conditions which have prompted local schools to dismiss students early today.

Bedford Schools will be dismissing the Fox Lane High School and Fox Lane Middle School at 10:30 a.m.  All elementary schools will dismiss early at 11:30 a.m.

In Chappaqua, the middle schools dismiss at 10:50 a.m., Greeley High School at 11:00 a.m. and all elementary schools at 11:40 a.m.

The snow will begin late morning, according to the NWS, mixing with sleet by the afternoon and changing to freezing rain and drizzle by the evening. The ice accumulation on the road could make for slippery driving conditions.

Temperatures are expected to hover around 30 degrees today and below freezing tonight. The ice could stick around until Tuesday morning, when the air should warm into the mid 40s.
