We had such a mild December that Andrew was convinced we would have no snow days this year. After not closing last Tuesday when clearly we should have, I was beginning to think he might be right. Over the weekend, it was looking good that today and Friday there would be significant snow. As they forecasts got closer though, it was definitely not looking good. By 10:00 last night, it was forecasted for us to get less than an inch, although it would be falling during the morning commute. Because of this, I was surprised when the phone rang at 5:00 this morning letting us know we were delayed. I knew that things were only going to get worse during the commute, so I suspected we had a pretty decent shot at that point of being closed, and when I looked out I noticed we already had a pretty decent amount of snow. Sure enough, about 90 minutes later the "closed" call came. It was so wonderful to sleep in! It turns out the path of the snow changed and when I got up this morning we were over 2" of snow, although not much more was predicted. As I always say with snow days, it's like being given the gift of time...especially since it means Thomas's basketball practice is also cancelled this evening!
