Let me rethink this because the snow is still coming and we are going to get a hell of a lot more. I just think it's too early to be calling off school even though schools generally use a certain amount of snow days a year regardless... Back in the day they would at least start the day and send us home early but in today's day and age it's totally different so yeah I get it 😁
@CLManussier okay thanks for that explanation but the simple fact is they respecting 8 in of snow by 9:00 this morning it is now noon we still don't even have an inch of viable snow on the ground
@duglop This is gonna sound like an uphill both ways comment. I can remember 3ft snows with roads closed, school busses cancelled and school still was not cancelled.
@duglop
It has become evident over time that it's safer not to send busloads of kids out onto sketchy roads in the first place ~ on days when a snow cancelation is anticipated, not that much gets done during the time AT school. And then, it's potentially white-knuckle driving to get them home again when you realize waiting until 3-ish o'clock isn't possible.
School busses aren't that safe in a wreck, and sliding into a ditch or being unable to get safely up/down hills is for real.
