Public school was declared cancelled last night around 7:00. The Univ of Richmond is officially closed for the day as well, and VCU only wants essential personel to come to campus.

All this is due to the impending inclement weather...2 to 5 inches of snow!! And, as of this point, not one snowflake has fallen yet. I'm really surprised that the whole city is grinding to a halt just because of the threat of snow. It seems a bit extreme to me.

But, hey, a day off with pay? I'll take it!

You made me check our forecast! Thankfully it doesn't look too bad except crazy cold with a few flurries. The cold is probably what is saving us from your snow. :-p Enjoy! Hopefully it's enough to warrant closing the schools. :)

that's how it was when I've lived in the south. they probably should have waited to know for sure it would come but I loved the days off of school.

I remember that about Virginia. It always seemed odd to me.

I want a snow day. I want it declared right now so I can go home and go back to bed.
