Eh, Snow Day
 
Yeah, so I have a snow day today. We got a front that dropped about 5 inches, and will drop a couple more today. It's really blizzard-like outside with the winds. Hurray for video games!

It was like 90 out here today.

We've had a foot of snow...yet no day off school. :(

All the time, people go on about health and safety, but when the whole school grounds are covered in complete sheet ice, well, it doesn't matter then. Someone slipped over, cracked their head on the ground and has had to go to hospital, but still, a day in school.

AND IT'S SNOWMAN SNOW! YOU ROLL IT AND IT STICKS! :cry:

But anyway, we're expecting another couple of feet tonight, so all is not lost. :D

I'm actually the education minister for Britain. You're welcome Lenny.

Where the hell did it snow 5 inches?

It's hot in Texas.

Lenny 2006-03-13 12:07 PM

Minnesota, I think.

Willkillforfood 2006-03-13 12:08 PM

A lot of the Midwest. There was a huge outbreak of tornadoes/severe storms and snow followed.

Jamesadin 2006-03-13 12:10 PM

5 Inches? What the hell, thats absolutely nothing. Where do you live?

Lenny 2006-03-13 12:12 PM

Minnesota!!!!

We had a foot. :D but that's nothing. :(

Willkillforfood 2006-03-13 12:13 PM

There was what, 100 tornadoes because of this front but at least you got a snow day! :p

Lenny 2006-03-13 12:14 PM

Tornado Day!

Radio crackles on: "Due to the Tornadoes, the following schools will be closed..."

AH, nuts. Mine hasn't popped up. Stupid Tornadoes...

Willkillforfood 2006-03-13 12:16 PM

Mm, we had a 4 on the Fujita scale in November and we didn't get out of school. Many homes were utterly devastated. There was a golf course which was almost entirely engulfed by the storm. Too bad there are so many trees and shit ...I wish I could have seen a good video of it. My uncle took a good picture of it though, thing was fucking huge - from miles away it looked so big even.

Lenny 2006-03-13 12:18 PM

Apparently it takes, on average, two and a half hours to shutdown a school. If ti doesn't start snowing during the schoolday, then we have no chance. Teachers are too lazy. :(

Willkillforfood 2006-03-13 12:23 PM

Some schools around here get closed when there's .5 inches of snow :P.

MightyJoe 2006-03-13 01:55 PM

That weather would be good for us, maybe tomorrow we'll get it. Today it was sunny, and windy prolly mid 50s.

We could have 18 inches of snow here and the school wouldn't close (its happened). The buses dont run if it is below -40 C, and only once did the school not open, because it was -55 C (-67 F) outside with the wind.

We've been under a tornado watch since last night.

Interesting fact, the largest tornado to hit the U.S. last year hit my town in Western Kentucky. Cool, right? :p You'd expect that from Texas or some shit.

HandOfHeaven 2006-03-13 08:55 PM

This was in southwestern Minnesota. Yeah, I went sledding today after smoking 5 bowls. It was the shit.

Thanatos 2006-03-13 09:11 PM

So you've turned into a really big pothead, huh?
