Kay said...: wow thats a lot of snow.....is your school closed....in england the whole place comes to a halt with two inches of the white stuf!!; February 11, 2013 at 1:27 AM
steven said...: hi kay! no, schools don't close for this sort of thing. the buses get cancelled which means at my school that three fifths of the students don't arrive. however, the teaching staff is expected to report to school. it makes for some hair-raising and hair tearing adventures getting to and from schools!!!! this particular snowfall was thirty three cm's in one day. i guess that's around thirteen inches or so . . . steven; February 11, 2013 at 7:25 AM
