Woot!! Vegas gets a snow day tomorrow! It snowed all day Monday and all day today, and the superintenant today has decided that due to possible icy conditions, school will be cancelled tomorrow. This has been the first snow day and the worst snowfall (tbh best imho) since 1979. Fuck yes! Pics in spoiler!



The storm approaches...


My mommy in the snow..


First snow fall...


For my girlfriend..


Courtyard at school...


Uhm. Soccer field.


Wrestling team snowball fight!


More courtyard!


This is supposed to be an empty desert lot.


Corner of Robindale Road & Rainbow Blvd.

    Oh wow, that's pretty awesome. We usually get at least 3-4 snow days a year. That's just how Michigan is though. tongue.gif

    Yup there's a huge storm mass in Arizona right now that's somehow supposed to be here by 12am Friday. Everybody is hoping for a snow day, but I don't know if I want one since I have 4 tests that day. Plus Friday is the last day before break so I'll be taking all those tests when I get back if I have a snow day.

    So yeah, a snow day on Friday will be very bittersweet if it happens. tongue.gif

    Dayum, it must be nice to live in places that cancel school at the drop of a snowflake.

    Yeah..well when its dry as a bone ~300 days a year, the tiniest rain will turn our roads into oil slicks...this is about 2" of snow today with another 6-16 expected overnight...if we get 10 tonight its the heaviest snow in at least 100 years.

    I remember taking a 1+1/2 hour walk home with friends because the busses couldn't move...we passed 8 on the way home all stuck in the snow tongue.gif Took me about another hour to get my keys out of my pockets -.-

    Well, I live out in countryside.
    Our buses get delayed by snow, but hardly ever canceled.
    And our school has never ever been closed.

    Because my school was like 80% bus kids, you went to school just for attendance and you could leave, harhar.
