We still have twelve days left to this month and then 28 in February. March and April will be rainy and windy but those I don't worry about. The next 40 days is what I am worried about. More snow tomorrow evening and a new storm coming on Sunday. Ugh!
My grandson is missing a lot of school. His Christmas break was over on January 4th. That's 12 week days ago. He been in school one day. We had a mix up and email confusion last week so he missed one day he could have gone. But out of 12 days there have been 10 snow days.
Snow and ice are the reasons. Transportation issues for the buses. The city transportation department has gotten more plows and I hear them out both in the morning and evening clearing the streets. The temps are in the 30's all this week and that means rain and water.
I am house bound and have not been out since November 30 when I had my last doctor's appointment concerning my shoulder. I don't plan on going out again until May when I make my annual medical check up.

Wow. Its insane here, too. OH GAWD on our deep fog commute tonight. A couple of times the fog got so thick neither roommate nor me could see for a couple of eye blinks- not hilarious when you are supposed to be driving on the road. I wish you luck.

I remember a few times in the summer when I couldn't see, because of the bright sun, for a few seconds. Scary.

@sallypup .....You don't? You obviously haven't driven in white out conditions and bad weather.

@celticeagle Not seeing when you're behind the wheel of a moving car is the stuff of nightmares.

I'm just afraid so. They will probably take days off the spring break.

The end of the 1st semester is toward the end of the month. So I hope he can make up for this in the second one.

Stay safe and warm. It'll be a bit spring-ish over here this weekend with rain.

@celticeagle Hopefully for perfect walking weather. Then it would dip back down to normal winter weather next weekend.
