This is not an online tournament.  It is an in person tournament at the West Orange Chess Club in West Orange, New Jersey in the United States.  Sorry for any confusion.

The following is a message from West Orange Chess Club President John Hagerty regarding the closing of the WOCC tomorrow night:

 
As is our policy in regards to club closures, if the public schools in West Orange are closed due to weather issues, the West Orange Chess Club will be closed for that day as well. The town feels that there could be problems with downed wires which would create road hazards. The Garden State Chess League will meet as scheduled the following Tuesday and the Mohan Nayak Memorial Tournament will be pushed back a week. The exact dates will be posted on our website in a day or two.
 
 
 
likely WOCC schedule for the next five weeks (including tomorrow) to be officially confirmed in the coming days:
 
 
October 26 - closed (weather)
 
November 2 - Garden State Chess League
 
November 9 - Mohan Nayak Memorial Tournament Round 3
 
November 16 - Mohan Nayak Memorial Tournament Round 4
 
November 23 - Mohan Nayak Memorial Tournament Round 5 (final round)
 
 
Please periodically check the WOCC website: https://westorangechess.webs.com/ for the official upcoming club schedule.
 
 
 
 
We apologize for any inconvenience and everybody stay safe.
