Another cold snap has arrived. It's below zero, with wind chills ranging between 20 and 30 below. Last time we had a snap like this, our district didn't close the schools. And because of some new fuel additive required by the state starting this past fall, about 20% of the buses had problems. Leaving kids standing out there at bus stops for 30 minutes or more in those wind chills. I imagine if that happens again, the superintendent is going to have a mass of irate parents to contend with. Especially since so many of the area schools have closed. And it really doesn't help that these winds are causing white-out conditions. That started yesterday. Just taking Max to preschool was a nightmare. Even Max noticed..."Mommy, where's the road?"
So anyway, we're keeping our fingers crossed that all buses will be running without problems. And just think, another 6 weeks and the majority of our winter problems for the season should be safely behind us.
