Huge snowball fight breaks out in Washington, D.C. after storm
A massive snowball fight broke out at Meridian Hill Park in Washington, D.C., after at least 5 inches of snow fell.

The lingering effects of Monday’s snowstorm has led some central Ohio school district to cancel or delay school again on Wednesday, Jan. 8.
Most area school districts were closed Monday, the first day back after winter break for many. Some still remained closed on Tuesday. Those with closures or delays on Wednesday are largely in predominantly rural counties that had Level 3 snow emergencies that barred travel going into Tuesday except for emergency personnel, and where sheriffs reduced the warning to Level 2 later in the day. That designation means travel is still tricky in some areas, often from blowing snow.
School closures (or delays) for Wednesday, January 8
As of Tuesday night, the following districts had announced closures (or delays) for Wednesday:
- Amanda-Clearcreek Local Schools

- Circleville City Schools (Two-hour delay)

This list will be updated as additional information becomes available. School districts are encouraged to send an email with any delays or closures to newsroom@dispatch.com.
