I think you better get ready for school.

If it is cold, an inch and a half of powder snow will not likely close school. If you happen to be in a little warmer climate and this is the first snow, then the ground is warm and the snow will likely be gone from most roads before morning.

In other words, stop procrastinating and get your homework done and be ready to learn something. You just might learn something that you will find useful down the road.

When I was in school, we had school even with a foot of snow. They would only close it if there was very high winds (more than 30 mph) and very cold temperatures (below zero degrees Fahrenheit) with a lot of snow. I know they close a bit more often now, but not much.

It only takes an 1" of snow to cancel school in Portland, Oregon - but we have a lot of hills and it gets really slippery. We also won't use rock salt on the roads because it's bad for the environment as it hurts the vegetation on the side of the roads.

Depends on where you live.

Florida 1 1/2 inches is plenty

Wisconsin 2 1/2 feet MIGHT do it.

Depends on where you live. It's a1/2 inch in Carolina, but 6 inches in PA. And probably about 3 feet in Alaska...
