Paramus High School SAT Testing Site Closes Jan. 24 as Winter Storm Iola is Scheduled to Hit

The Paramus High School SAT testing site will be closed Saturday, Jan. 24 after Winter Storm Iola is scheduled to blow into Paramus this weekend, bringing freezing rain, ice, and even some snow. The SAT makeup date will be Feb. 7.

The nor’easter, which could bring nearly a half-a-foot of snow to parts of New Jersey, is slated to strike the region beginning late Friday and lasting until Saturday.

The National Weather Service is predicting a 100 percent chance of snow tonight, a wintery mix tomorrow, with snow likely falling into Saturday night. A total accumulation of two to five inches could fall in Paramus this weekend.

The National Weather Service has also issued a “Winter Weather Advisory” in effect from midnight Friday to 6 p.m. Saturday for snow, sleet and freezing rain covering nearly all of New Jersey.

Paramus will likely see one to three inches of snow after midnight tonight and “rain, snow, and freezing rain before 2 p.m. [Saturday], then rain likely, possibly mixed with snow,” the NWS reports.

On Saturday, ice accumulation, freezing rain, and more snow could cause treacherous conditions for drivers. There will be up to two inches of new snow on Saturday, as well as ice accumulation. Drivers are urged to proceed with caution and watch out for black ice.

There is a 50 percent chance of snow on Sunday night and Monday, the NWS reports.
