      This is what a snow day looks like.... not a flake in sight,...

      Sigh

      We got a light dusting last night. Nothing too bad maybe .5-1".

          Because it's freaking cold out! Who needs snow when you can get frostbite in 10 minutes.

            It's just under 20F here. Not too bad... would be better if we had some snow.

              The forecast has us getting something like 2-4",.. but it hasn't even started yet.

              This is the current radar - but - again,.. nothing is falling.

                  Anyways, I'm trying to drink my coffee and wake up.

                  I'm a grouch today, woke up early because of the dog, and been in a bad mood since.

                    This isn't a comparison to NY - but in some areas the terrain is pretty varied - hills and curves and such. We've had buses slid off the road on less.

                      I make it easy on people - I stay in a bad mood,.. no more guessing.

                          No doubt, right? We wouldn't get a snow day for less than 8+ in a single snowfall. And around here, they normally wait for the last min before deciding.

                            The only time we get snow days around here is if the windchill falls below -15.

                                The school district here sets it officially at a Wind Chill Warning as defined by the NWS, which means -30 F wind chills. A Wind Chill Advisory (-20 F) is school on, but an excused absence is marked if you keep your child home.

                                    I don't get the "Keep Thor in Thursday!"

                                    What am I missing?

                                      That's where the name of the day came from... "Thor's Day" became "Thursday".

                                        It's one of the few that remain in the English translation.

                                        Monday is Moon Day from Luna
                                        Tuesday is Mar's Day (God of War) in most European languages.
                                        Wednesday is Woden's Day mispronounced

                                          Woden is the Old English form of Odin. So Wednesday is the god Odin's Day. Odin in Norse Mythology maps to Mercury and that's the name for the day in Latin. So you can think of it as Mercury's or Odin's Day. Same diety, just Latin vs. Germanic naming.
