It's 5* here right now with -11* windchill and headed for colder.

Not the kind of weather to be walking to class in!

When I was going to Valpo (this was 1985, my sophomore year) they cancelled classes for one day during a very windy snow storm because they were concerned about faculty members getting to campus safely. But that was (still is) a rare occurrence.

I'd love to be in California right now!

I wish stuff got canceled on account of weather here, but all our school boards said flat out that they will NEVER close for any kind of weather because we outa expect it lol. nope were are expected to be at work and school when its -50, blizzarding and zero visiability lol. the other day I had to dig my way to work, I was snowed into the house, had to dig my out, down the walk, shovel around the gate so I could open it, shovel to the car..find the car...dig the car out...lol. -2 is only -19C and really that isnt too bad..cold if your not used to it, but downright toasty next to -50 lol
