Snow D(el)ays
I was woken up at 5:45am this morning with a phone call announcing some wonderful news … it was our first snow delay of the season! I promptly used the two hours of cushion to roll over and enjoy my flannel sheets just a little more.
I absolutely hate waking up early on potential snow days and tuning in to the local TV/radio to find out if we have school. The endless drivel drives me crazy, and my eyelids inevitably respond to gravity just as the “C” schools are scrolling by. By the time they’ve come around again, I’m either really late (not good for a normal day) or fully awake (not good for a snow day).
Thankfully, technology is here to once again save the day. If you’re in my city, Cincinnatischoolclosings.com is an always-updated list of school closing and delays. And even better, 700 WLW will send you an email and/or text message immediately when your school makes an announcement. Now you can find out in seconds, with barely an eyelid raised!

I miss lots of snowdays.. last year however they gave us to snowdays in a row.. how does that happen I mean I live at school…I know what you mean though about snow delay/cancellations i can remember my days at xenia christian staring at the tv going please let there be a delay please let there be a cancellation… I hated those days where I had to go to school even though every school was closed I did not want to be there no one else wanted to be there. Why were we there I dont know.. delays were always nice because there was never a limit when I was little I remember having to go to school on a saturday… No one should be in school on sat… so we were in school according to the rules but we really played games all day…o state laws..
