are you speaking for SNE…or just your tiny lil area?

Yup…Definitely that area in Mass/Springfield, always a minimum there, but just bad luck for Middlesex county in CT this year for them.

Well let’s hope it ends up wonderful my man.

The superintendents knew…smart decision to cancel here.

Kind of F’ed us here…good storm with the wind and blizzard conditions and all…but 13-14” is a let down compared to what others had…literally 48-50% of what you/they(SE Mass) had. That does leave a sting behind. Still a great winter though for me…but that keeps it from A+ for me. Unless we Get a good one in March… that could certainly redeem somewhat..but that’s a big IF as of now.

Heavy snow..28 degrees-great snow growth too. Accumulating on everything. As Seymour said…was the right call for inland areas FOR SURE. Elementary kids would be getting out here in 45 min-to an hour today…wouldn’t have been good.

And it’s colder here..29 with close to moderate snow now.

I agree…whether we like that, or not.

That’s on them for f’ing up last Wednesday. Our guy here had a delay, and then went to canceling last Wednesday …he made the right call. You’re guy not so much.

Light Snow…crawling to 60” lol. If the blizzard didn’t bone me, I’d be crawling to 80” too.

And more to come perhaps….

Oh ok..good to hear.

Ok I get that…but as the top administrator for a school district…it’s you that’s gonna take the heat for the call you make. If folks weren’t so sue happy…then absolutely I agree with you. But that’s not the case…so what else can one do when presented with a possible situation like his…? You play it safe..and save your job. And then nobody gets hurt and you’re a hero.

Ya but when it’s your job to provide safety…you’re gonna take the fall If you err on the wrong side. What’s so hard to understand about this? I agree…there are times when a cancellation may not be needed..if we knew exactly what the future may hold a few hrs from decision time…but we don’t. If it was your job on the line…what would you do? I’d play it safe in that situation.

He doesn’t get it. Another arm-chair QB.

Nobody is going to July you silly poster…again, you’re not understanding the full situation.

Also it’s a catch 22 for the supers…if you cancel or let out early and it doesn’t do much…people are bitching. If you make the call to go in and have school and it goes nuts…then people want to Sue you and say you’re negligent. Can’t win. So cancel or whatever, and err on the side of caution, and win the battle. And save your job.

100% as well.

Enough with the cancellation BS. John(FXWX) explained things perfectly a while back. All It takes is one little mishap, and a kid gets hurt, and say good bye to your job as as superintendent. And a massive law suit for the town/city. If I was in that job I’d cancel too…not going down from sue happy folks. Lots of districts, including mine, had a half day already planned, and the onset of frozen precip here inland was going to coincide with dismissal and travel during that window. If we had a full day here…I think we wouldn’t have had a cancellation. But we were slated to get out early and that’s what prompted the cancellation. If folks weren’t so lawsuit happy, maybe it would be different..but it isn’t. So that’s why it is the way it is. Our superintendent made a bad call his first year in, and he had us going in in the morning during a freezing drizzle event in early January, that came out of nowhere, and it was a total disaster of a morning. The parents and teachers wanted to hang the guy. He said never again…and I don’t blame the poor guy. It ain’t worth the hassle, and potential loss of your job.

Sucks for them…poor kids. What kid wants to be doing school work as a blizzard is Raging outside.

And that was my point…what is he looking at? The downer syndrome that he has, must distort his ability to see what is actually going on. Ya hate to see it.

Classic….perhaps. But probably more on the extreme end ..no?

True. But the point was nothing looked like what he was saying.

That was exactly my point..WTF is he looking at. The warmth looks great…and then we go back the other way. How it all actually all Plays out…we don’t actually know. But nothing looked like what he is saying.

Euro looks different..so does the Euro AI…big warmth, and then a wintry look after…so. EPS too.
