Then again, it was very flat where I used to live. Lots of hills around here...I suppose we could stretch that argument. ;)Marlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14877001080913199818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11568193.post-62567859011882077432010-02-05T07:57:12.475-05:002010-02-05T07:57:12.475-05:00Holy crap, I can't believe that!

Here, we literally have to be buried under 5 feet of snow before they'll call school off and that's only if the kids' can't trek to school in snow shoes.Creative Junkiehttp://www.thecreativejunkie.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11568193.post-80116412267935993322010-02-04T19:03:49.347-05:002010-02-04T19:03:49.347-05:00I can't understand anywhere that gets snow tha...I can't understand anywhere that gets snow that sticks to not have provisions for dealing with it. I went to college in Massachusetts and we had class even if it snowed a FOOT! My kids get a two hours delay when we have a dusting. I'm grateful we haven't had any actual closures so far this school year - most of our snow has managed to fall on the weekend.Cherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15398170245040387614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11568193.post-14132124587548326832010-02-04T18:30:31.167-05:002010-02-04T18:30:31.167-05:00Yup!

I hear every word you say... we had just the same thing at the start of January. <br />At least school are now making plans so that local kids can still attend school if they can walk, or be driven safely. <br />So if it happens again this month, we may not have total closure of school for a week or more.. <br />Hope your snow goes soon!Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11918211625453430621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11568193.post-84819952933949096802010-02-04T15:47:51.285-05:002010-02-04T15:47:51.285-05:00I've just been through the same thing!I've just been through the same thing!Maude Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03669688074743095866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11568193.post-53415841586234451622010-02-04T14:23:21.568-05:002010-02-04T14:23:21.568-05:00Yep.

School closed all week, bins not emptied for a month, roads not gritted - and even when they were, the pavements weren't....

Completely and utterly INSANE. If the climate lets the snow stay past 24 hours, then they should have provisions to deal with the snow. (In places where snow is a freak occurrence, like say NC, I have more understanding, but that much snow? They need better prep.)SciFi Dadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10479890087443823197noreply@blogger.com
