[quote=Anonymous]What the "I grew up in Upstate NY/Michigan/Boston" crowd always fails to remember is that Virginia simply doesn't have the equipment to deal with snow. They don't have as many plows, as many trucks to pretreat roads, or as many buses that can run in extreme temperatures. Virginia doesn't have enough snow events to warrant having all that equipment on hand. Other than 2009-10 winter when we had multiple storms each over a foot of snow, it just doesn't happen that often. And FCPS closes for cold when buses simply won't start because it's so cold. We had a couple of Polar Vortex years that made bussing kids to school impossible a few times. [/quote]
