New Canaan Public Schools are closed Thursday, the district announced, as officials report slippery roads and limited visibility in the early morning following sleet and snow overnight.

With the cancellation, the district so far this winter has seen four snow days, pushing the tentative last day of school to Friday, June 19. (That remains the last day even if we have one more snow day—but with two more, Thursday April 2 becomes a regular school day. After that, Friday April 10—that’s April break week—becomes a school day.)

The National Weather Service posted a Special Advisory at 5 a.m. Thursday, saying temperatures would drop below freezing through 8 a.m., exacerbating poor road conditions. “Motorists should exercise extreme caution this morning,” the weather service said. Snow started before dawn and continues in New Canaan Thursday morning. Forecasts call for snow through about 4 p.m. and a total of up to four inches.
