Woooo!

SNOW.  WOOT WOOT.

We have just recieved about 6\" of snow in 5 hours.  That is WAY more than Indianapolis can handle.  I am praying that school is canceled.  My dad is on the way home from the airport, and cannot do any more than 10MPH on the INTERSTATE without sliding all over.

Currently, our school isn't even delayed.

I'll let you know in the morning if our school comes to its senses and cancels school for the day.

Literally, they DO NOT PLOW almost EVER around here.

lol, that is hilarious.

Down here in the boondocks of Kentucky, we got about three inches of snow, but the frozen rain and sleet was bad.  My school is canceled for today and tommorrow.  The county prepared for the worst too, but my mom said the roads were awful.

lol.  6 inches is nothing to us here in Mich.  We have about 4\" right now, with more hopefully on the way.  School has not been canceled so far this year in our city (it has in cities north of us, one of them got like a foot and a half I think).  I think in total we have gotten about 20-30 inches so far this season.

Ya, I come from Wisconsin, and I remember getting like 16 inches in one night, and I know we went to school the next day... we may have been delayed...

Around here... 3 inches is enough to delay usually.

My school still has not posted a delay :(

My dad got home, said the roads are horrendous.

We had about 1 or 2 inches in Texas. My school cancelled today morning. But unluckily, it will all melt tomorrow, and we have to go back to school. :(

I know people who went to schools in New York, where even when it snowed 3 feet, school was still open.

No snow plows = no school when it snows even a little.

1 to 2\" and you get off! Up here in north ontario we have to get like 2-3\" before the buses are cancelled. THE SCHOOL HERE NEVER CLOSES unless the boiler dies, or theres a fire.

Sometimes we get lucky and the buses freeze though :)

I was being sarcastic...

Having hurricanes is much worse than a couple inches of snow. :(
