Loudoun County Public Schools and administrative offices will be closed tomorrow due to the threat of flooding and high winds from Hurricane Sandy.

The federal government is also closed tomorrow for non-emergency employees; telework and emergency employees are still expected to report.

The Metro has shut down rail service for Monday and suspended bus service until further notice.

The county is expected to feel the first heavy rains of Sandy tonight as a flood watch and high wind warning go into effect. Sustained winds of 30 to 40 mph are expected for the area by 8 a.m. Monday, according to the National Weather Service.

Sandy is expected to make landfall sometime Monday night along the New Jersey shore, bringing 3 to 6 inches of rain to Loudoun County.
