I think 1.5-2 weeks a couple years ago when we had a blizzard. Most recently had a week and a half off last February due to two huge blizzards back-to-back. (Maryland)
Three days I think. Looking back, that's the longest I remember.
Never :smug: In Reykjavík, school is never canceled because of snow. We suck it up and just go. Only one day in my school history has been canceled due to [B]bad weather[/B], and that's when we got the leftovers of the hurricane that fucked up New Orleans.
Florida... :smith:
Three days
[QUOTE=Reactors;27854831]Well I think it's mainly just because I live in a rural area, just country roads that suck to drive on period. And when it snows or ices up we have no main routes that have been de-iced.[/QUOTE] Then use your legs, dammit.
1 week
None because of Florida :fyadride::frogc00l::fyadride:
[QUOTE=Reactors;27853873] Edit; I forgot it doesn't really snow everywhere. What weather has taken you out of school then?[/QUOTE] Some random storm.
I live in Australia. It doesn't snow too much around here.
Not a single fucking day. In Finland, we go to school even when there's so much snow that you can't get the front door open.
Week and a half.
I remember opening the front door to go to school and there was just a wall of snow. I had to dig my way out and practically swim through 8 ft of snow for 1.5 miles. We never skip school because of snow.
[QUOTE=Herr Sven;27853993]Also applies to Sweden.[/QUOTE] And Canada.
2 weeks.
2 weeks
1 day. what can i say, it dosent snow much in texas...
No snow here D:
Well...my university cancelled everything last Tuesday. Although the absolute longest I've been out of school was back in middle school, we had 3 days off plus the weekend. Usually though it takes quite a lot of snow to cause that, since we've got the necessary equipment to deal with it.
Two weeks.
I've been out two weeks for fires. Shit sucks cause you're stuck inside and it rains ashes. Looks like the apocalypse when it happens.
[QUOTE=Bllasae;27861867]And Canada.[/QUOTE] Also Ittoqqortoormiit.
Zero. Because it does not snow in The Philippines. [sp]Goddammit that was horrible[/sp]
[QUOTE=voider;27853955]We dont have snow days in norway because we are real men.[/QUOTE] This.
I live in California literally on the beach. It has never snowed. Some bullshit reason about saltwater air or something. :(
3 weeks.
1 week, due to this. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Storm_%22Aphid%22[/url]
0 days. My school hasn't been touched by snow. There's ice in the cafeteria though.
1 whole week. Have to make up 3 of those days during winter break. :saddowns:
Two weeks.
