Jamaican Prime Minister addresses Del. State grads, including many from the island nation
“We feel very accomplished,” said Kingston resident Orville Plummer, who is part of the Caribbean Ed.D. Program and traveled to Delaware to receive his Doctorate in Educational leadership. “It was a very hard three and a half years, and we have worked collaboratively together and we are very proud to be represented for Jamaica.”
“I think it’s very fitting that Prime Minister Holness come to represent Jamaica,” he added. “We are going back to impact our country.”
As graduates receive their degrees, Holness shared some wisdom with the Class of 2024, offering young and older graduates advice based on lessons he would tell his younger self.
“First, perspective is important. Life always throws up challenges, obstacles and struggles … However, obstacles are sometimes stepping stones, challenges are usually opportunities to be discovered, our struggles are oftentimes exercises to make us stronger,” he said. “We can benefit immensely by approaching our problems from a different point of view. To achieve this, we must accept, regardless of how much knowledge we believe we possess – there is still more to learn.”
His second piece of advice was to be conscious and aware.
“Embrace your struggles and grasp your opportunities. In navigating life, not every struggle is worth fighting, not every opportunity should be taken,” he added.

How much snow are we getting? See the Delaware weather forecast for this weekend
How to safely shovel snow
The Mayo Clinic has some tips for safely shoveling snow.
Another weekend, another chance for snow in Delaware and the surrounding region.
Following a dusting of snow for some parts of our area, the weekend forecast for the First State likely will include some snowfall. But how much?
Here’s the latest outlook:
How much snow are we getting?
A storm could drop anywhere from a dusting to 4 inches of snow in Delaware from Sunday afternoon through Sunday evening.
Between 3 and 4 inches could fall in most of New Castle County with the southern portion currently projected to get 2 to 3 inches, according to the National Weather Service in Mount Holly, New Jersey.
Meanwhile, most of Kent County and the northern portion of Sussex County could see 1 to 2 inches with the Delaware beaches likely to get less than an inch, the weather service said.
As of Friday morning, here is the probability of 2 inches of snow in Delaware:
- Wilmington: 68%
- Dover: 41%
- Bethany Beach: 2%
During the storm, snowfall rates could exceed 1 inch per hour near and northwest of the I-95 corridor, they said.
Will it snow for the Eagles game?
The Philadelphia Eagles are set to take on the Los Angeles Rams in a divisional-round playoff matchup at 3 p.m. at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. If the weather forecast holds, this will mean snow is likely to fall throughout the game, giving the Eagles a decisive weather advantage over the West Coast team.
Dangerously cold temps coming
Following the snow, temperatures will likely fall below freezing Sunday night and remain below freezing until at least Friday, according to the weather service. The coldest period will be Monday night through Thursday morning.
Throughout the week, high temperatures will be in the teens with lows in the single digits to below zero.
Night-time wind chills are projected to be below zero and recover into the single digits only during the daytime, the weather service said.
Here is the estimated minimum wind chills for next week:
- Wilmington: minus 8 degrees
- Dover: minus 9 degrees
- Bethany Beach: minus 6 degrees
