Unfair!

[Weegeefan765]

Okay, it was Sunday yesteday, and I was taking my dog for a walk. Shortly, snow started falling. In a few minutes, it was a blizzard! I couldn't even face the wind because snow would fly at my face. A little while later, it stopped, and my dog and I shook off the snow and started walking again (no-where to shelter >_< ).

Now, present day, I wake up to a blanket of snow on the ground, and I was hopeful for a day off school, especially as the news said that temps wouldn't go higher than 0oC . However, when I checked, my school was still open!

i know how you feel man... there was this one time when i was a freshmen in highschool and we were having some insane weather. it had rained nonstop for weeks in my town, and in my town, we have a huge dam controlling the tennessee river. about 3 hours upriver is the knoxville dam too...

so after all this rain, a majority of the roads in my city leading to important places were completely closed off. school was called off for 3 weeks straight because that's how long it took the rain to finally wash away and the roads to open up again.

it was really scary because a lot of people thought the dam was going to actually break... they were considering evacuating the entire city that would be in the way of the water if the dam broke open... knoxville had an even bigger dam, but couldn't close it because they were in the same position. so we were getting the rain water + knoxville's rain water drainage... it was all good though in the end and i didn't die, obviously.

so i told you that to tell you this: later on that year, we got a major blizzard that made it impossible for people to get off of a mountain that was in my school's district. all of the people that lived on this mountain couldn't get off of it safely, but they couldn't call school off because of the 3 weeks we had missed earlier in the year because of the rain... it sucked. it was the absolute perfect conditions for a snowday, but because of all that rain we couldn't have the day off, lol. the worst of it: the people that couldn't physically make it to school that day were counted absent and couldn't do anything for it.

0oC isn't very cold... it was -20oF here a few weeks ago.

(which is around -29oC I think?)

Never happened to me before....Or did it? Hmmmmm....Nope.

My school was closed all last week due to the big ice storm... xD sucks for you school.

Grow up. I've had to walk to school in negative nine degree weather. We got out a few weeks ago for two and a half days because it was negative fifteen or so though.

 

[Rocketman]

It only takes .5 inch to 1 inch of snow for school to be cancelled here, due to all of the secondary roads and small back roads that get easily covered up and can't be removed of snow.

That's how it is here in northern PA. Southerners complain so much... Down south they close everything if there's, like, one inch of snow on the ground. LAWL.

Now imagine this compared to .5 inch or 1 inch of snow... around maybe an over an inch of ice, rain that froze over it, fallen trees, and maybe idk 2 more inches of snow...
Yeah, that was why I was out all last week. I did nothing but play Brawl and ACCF and get on the computer.

HA! You think it's not like that up north? We have it 10 times worse and we still have to go to school.

Another reason that your schools and stuff barely every close is because all they have to do is bring out trucks and scrape out all the snow and ice (easy on main roads) You really have to live in the south to understand. Actually, I live on a main road, but there are roads around me that can never be removed of snow and ice until it melts.
