Dudley Schools - Closed already!
In article om,
says...
I see that Dudley has closed their schools already.

WTF is the country coming to? Surely that decision is best taken in the
morning when they know how much snow has fallen, if it doesn't just rain
that is...
The schools up here get closed but not mid afternoon the day before
*forecasted* snow. We get a phone call in the morning, normally about
0800, but already have pretty good idea if the school will be shut due to
having to, literally, dig the Land Rover out...
What did the weather situation end up being like?
I know that, in our recent ice storm, we were very happy when decisions
to close were made the afternoon before because it allowed us to make
plans much easier than if we had to wait until the morning.
