Waterloo/Other Schools Closing Early Due to Severe Weather Threat

When you think of school closings in Iowa, you likely think of snow. Ice. Freezing rain. Hey, maybe even sub-zero temps. But you don't necessarily think of wind and tornadoes, though it's crucial we keep our kids safe, so it's a smart reason to pull the plug early.
