Depends where you are, some places it takes 2 feet of snow, others 2 inches.

And because Texas uses sand to keep the roads from being slippery. Funniest thing I heard when the Super Bowl was in Dallas a few years ago.

Last Friday's games got cancelled locally because 1 inch of snow was forecast for the afternoon. The inch came and the resulting traffic changed my 30 minute commute to about 80 minutes.

Not quite... I've seen districts cancel for only a few inches.
I always chuckle when I see all the schools in the area closed for weather... and the evening news showing all the kids at the mall instead. If they could drive or be driven to the mall, surely they could have made it to school. (/soap)

I don't disagree (grew up in PA). But here, and in this day and age, if the officials didn't close the schools, and a school bus, g_d forbid, slid off the road and children were injured or worse, it would be a very, very bad thing.......

And More Snow On the Way the Next 3 Days
Update...
Games today cancelled 1 hour before start (Grrrrrr ), which makes 4 out of 5 dates snowed out this week. Again, glad I'm not an AD or assigner. This is gonna mess the scheduling up royally. At least I can watch Phil on the Scottsdale TPC #16. No snow there thus far today. Rut, keep some of this stuff over there, will ya???

Quite a contrast to where I grew up - Chicago. Despite the weather there, in my 4 years of HS, my school was only closed one day - when the boiler broke. I'd walk the four blocks to school in snow that was at least 2 feet deep all the time. No biggie.
