Ahead of predicted icy weather next week, the Hays school district preemptively canceled classes Tuesday. Temperatures in the Austin area are expected to plunge to the low 20s, and to the teens in some areas, Monday night into Tuesday morning with a 56% chance of snow in the forecast, according to the National Weather Service.

On Friday, Hays Consolidated Independent School District families received an email from the district that there wouldn't be school on Tuesday for inclement weather.
