This is what I woke up to, and it's still coming down.

The snow is pretty! Good day to sit & work on saddles.

Just a dusting. Barely anything. But it's pretty.

So school will only be closed for a couple days?

 

[memphis]

Well....it didnt affect the Memphis School District, but two districts east of us closed and one district south of us delayed start. We did have s bunch of wrecks. Let the girls out & they had fun pecking at it...

It definitely amuses me that any schools close with less than a foot per day.

Ours were already out due to illness, but if they had been open, they would have closed. I think we have one plow for the entire county.

It's currently 34 here with a real feel of 23. Snow flurries, but had heavy dense fog and pouring down rain all day yesterday and last night. I know WV has ALL schools closed or on delays due to flooding and/or the flu - except for 6 in the panhandle. I figure it might not take long for those to close because of the rampant flu going around. I can only imagine how bad it could be if you can't get out but need to with sick kids. Not sure about schools up here in western Maryland, but these counties all border WV.

Wind is the big thing here - averaging 20 mph. This old place "moves" when it does that.

In Florida they close school if there "might" be ice on the roads.

Holy cow I know the east is used to snow, but we get wind more often than we don't. There was a 40-50 mph windstorm over the weekend that annoyed me because all my patio furniture got rearranged.
Good luck with flu season!

I'd like less wind if you could mail some.

They've closed schools here just on the threat of snow. We have no snow removal capabilities. We usually get ice vs snow.

We've had a few school closings due to flu too. But how about those two cruise ships being quarantined? Can you imagine being confined to your room for a few weeks? Cruising with thousands of people is not something I'd ever do to begin with... but I feel for the people stuck in rooms with no windows.
