Let's see. we're getting a snowstorm.
Not a hurricane, not a tornado, not a supersell thunderstorm, but a snowstorm. We're talking fluffy snow right now with increasing amounts later tonight.
SO......with the small amount we have right now, schools have closed for both days, state workers are being sent home early (and I will bet they will be told to stay home tomorrow as well) and the rest of the real working world will have to brave the elements and risk our lives because our companies don't close at the first wisp of snow!
I know the plow drivers will definitely earn their pay tonight, but it makes me shake my head in disbelief that the schools are closed TODAY when the storm isn't really due to pick up until tonight???
I swear that our state officials are turning into (if they haven't already) the biggest wussies in the world. They make decisions that are based on fear of lawsuit more than financial responsibility and intelligence.
All I can say is bring on the storm and let's see how these wussies handle it. I'd rather rely on my neighbors and friends than the state any day of the week, mainly because I can trust them not to screw me over the first chance they get!
