I was wondering the same thing. We’ve had severe storm systems before without cancellations. It was pretty windy and there was a EF-0 tornado in the Bartram Park area so I guess it was ultimately the right call though.

Up until about 1:00, I thought it was a complete overreaction. However, when the storm hit about the time school would have been letting out, I saw it was the right call. Plus, as NewJagsCity pointed out, it had the real potential of closing the bridges because of wind speed.
