That's impressive. Usually in Maine they go to school unless the snow actually buries the school

Did they call to let you know school was cancelled ?

They sent out mass text messages

Remember when we had to sit by staticky radios hoping and praying they would mention our schools ?

They did that for my niece and nephew while we were in Alaska, as well.
I'll admit that it was more convenient than the old radio announcements, though less dramatic. :)

I remember watching the news hoping to see our school on the list at the bottom of the screen. This is so much easier

It usually ended up being ALL schools but mine closed.

That’s how this school has been lately. The last storm we got every other school in the area was closed but ours.

When we arrived in Alaska, they had record snowfall. They almost never cancel school there either, and the kids were home nearly a week

Wow! That’s gotta be a lot then. I’m not thrilled with what we have now or what’s coming, but I’m glad it’s not that bad.

When we went last year, it was warmer there in Anchorage than in many parts of Maine, because of the warm Pacific currents.
But this year it was bitingly cold. Single digits
