We don’t get much snow here and when we do it is an event. People panic and close schools, run to Kroger for groceries and buy a load of firewood from the guys in pickup trucks parked on the side of the road.
To be prudent, the school board allows 5 snow days each year to be built into the school calendar. Last year we did not use a single snow day. But this year, we have already used up all 5 and are going to have a 6th day tomorrow, which will have to be made up later this spring. And we still have 5 weeks of winter left to go!
