Due to the bitter cold and the hazardous driving conditions brought on by the Arctic blast, the majority of school districts and college campuses in the Greater Houston area will be closed on Tuesday. HISD, CFISD, FBISD, Katy ISD, and the University of Houston are a few of them.
On Monday, a wintry mix turned many local roads and highways into ice sheets, closing some interstates and posing a hazard.
