Evening Hive. How is everyone?

 

[ASH]

Well, not anymore.. Its night here.
But its not snowing...
Just damn cold.

 

[ASH]

I am okay. I should go to bed soon, but I dont think I will.

 

[Mirsky]

i'm doin' alright.

It is cold here too. 18 degrees fahrenheit. really really cold for portland. was snowing, the flakes were as small as sand and just flew about in the wind and didn't stick.

 

[ASH]

Its about 2 below 0, but the windchill makes it about 25 below 0 here.

I have only gone outside when nessasary, its nice to not work in the winter time.

 

[Steve Jung]

It's been raining lightly here the past couple days. The temperature's been about 40°F.

 

[Mirsky]

i hope the snow sticks

then the schools will be closed. in portland it doesn't take much to close the schools.

Hmm.. weird. I would have guessed it would have taken a lot of snow in Portland to get stuff to close, but you're used to more rain then snow, I guess.

Here in Upstate New York, there are a few schools in the hills that close at the first inclings of snow, but, for the most part, schools don't close unless there is a LOT of it. Back when i was in middle school, I do remember them closing school one day cause it was too cold out (the busses wouldn't start). It was around 30-40F below. Other then that, it just takes lots and lots of snow.

Here in Iowa the schools close several times every school year. Mostly because the buses have to pick up alot of kids that are in rural area's..and alot of gravel roads dont get properly plowed in a storm. This causes unsafe driving conditions for the bus drivers and the passengers.
Or in late summer, right when school starts it has closed because none of the schools have air conditioning in the class rooms.
