Being from one of the snowiest large cities in the country, I also know what snow days are. The name of snow days is a bit misleading. They are traditionally utilized not only for cases of excessive amounts of snow, but also in the event of extremely cold temperatures. So, while the snow last week was minimal, the well below freezing temperatures certainly justified a snow day. Surprise snow days offer opportunities for sleeping in, designing make-shift sleds, and creating memories that are core to our youth.
