Ok, now here's a good one.... Freezing drizzle advisory this morning
changing to rain in the afternoon with warmer (35F) temps. So most of the
area's schools were 2 hours delayed. Township roads were pretty slippery,
County and state roads were fine. So what does our local school do???? No
delay, send the busses out this morning on the ice THEN declare they will
cancel school... When??? at 1pm!!! Just so they can call it a full day
towards their 180 school days. And what's the weather now at 2:45?? 35
degrees and rain, roads are clear... un freakin real.

It's all over if Jay posts a picture of himself measuring a snowdrift
with a ruler.

Actually, most Iowans I know (including me) would vastly prefer snow to
the
crap we've been getting.

There's just not much you can do with freezing rain and sleet.

(Although, incredibly, our schools are OPEN today! All the school
districts
around us are closed -- again -- but the "powers that be" in Iowa City
must've finally felt the pressure from parents to stop canceling school
while the rest of us kept going about our business as usual.)
