I walked past the kids' elementary school on my way home. Part of the sidewalk is a little icy but generally safe. Wisconsin is open. The Wisconsin sidewalk is generally safe, except that you have to walk slowly over the bumps of snow. Buses are running. Many kids are out. It is a beautiful day. At least for Northwest schools, Janney, Mans, Hearst, and Murch, I don't see how it is dangerous to go to school tomorrow.


My elementary-age kids go to one of those schools and have been walking there since yesterday to meet up with friends! Our car got plowed in, which was annoying, but it wasn't that hard to shovel it out. All to say, we probably could have had school today even and been fine ...


You can walk what about the employees who must drive. Congrats on your area being clear. It’s amazing to think that others have not been touched at all.


those who has to drive don't have to come to work. Most of the roads near DC is clear.

Not surprising given conditions PLUS the water issue in Montgomery Co right now.

Amazing 🤩


Country club!!


Poors, you are being trolled.

Kids are not encouraged to “hang out” at country clubs. It's not the YMCA. They may be there to use the weight room but there is a reason people pay for country clubs and the atmosphere, and it’s not so it can be used as a playground or a teen hangout spot. - signed member



By hang out, that means doing specific indoor activities with coaching and direct supervision, along with grabbing food from the restaurant. Yes, this isn’t the YMCA and we pay for the amenities like athletic training.


So why didn’t you just say that? And I’m embarrassed for you that you felt the need to bring your country club into discussions about…checks notes…school cancellation.

It’s tacky and you sound like a striver. Money can’t buy you class. -country club member



Well what are your kids doing while off school? The tennis courts are busy today.


Helping neighbors shovel!

The Palisades is a mess. Main roads are fine but we can’t get off our block. Our car is snowed in.


Then shovel yourself out?


Exactly so many spoiled people here.

The roads are clear but the cars are encased in a berm of solid ice.

It is a beautiful day outside. Also, beyond driving, there are many options to go to these elementary schools which are near the metro.

The wintry mix stopped falling 40 hours ago. Why haven’t people done their shoveling?

How does one get to the metro. Wow there are a lot of people who have no idea the conditions throughout the DMV. Should a teacher walk five miles to the metro
lol

Walking. I did just that walk. It is totally doable. Many kids are out.

There are secondary roads where people live that were not plowed and that are now a sheet of ice and not driveable. Does that make sense. They can’t plow the ice it’s to late.
