Schools in the North Bergen and Hudson County Schools of Technology districts will be closed tomorrow in anticipation of a winter storm that could dump up to eight inches of snow on the county.
One factor that went into the decision to close those schools is that North Bergen is considered one of the hilliest communities in the nation. Also, a number of students who attend the county school district have much farther to travel to get to school than students who attend school in their local district.
Winter Storm Niko is expected to bring 5 to 8 inches of snow to northern New Jersey tomorrow. Forecasters say the snow is expected to start around 4 a.m. and last until the mid-afternoon.

Other school districts in the county said the decision to close or stay open would be made later today or tomorrow.
