Snow Day
I love living in places where panic ensues because of snow.
On some level I can understand it - if you're not ready or warned, snow can be dangerous and unpredictable. Sorta like swans. But there were snow alerts and warnings all week, so having Friday turn into a snow day shouldn't have really surprised anyone.
But, by the time the snow got to this point (had been snowing for less than an hour) we got an email alert.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE BELOW SEMINAR, SCHEDULED FOR TODAY AT 1300 AT THE EMPLOYMENT RESEARCH INSTITUTE, HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO SEVERE WEATHER - APOLOGIES FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE CAUSED
It was all in bright red, too.
By the end of the day, when the snow was melting so loudy you can actually *hear* it melt, we'd received another email telling us that, due to the severe weather, there would be no afternoon pickup of the mail. (Just to clarify, that's internal pickup - I'm sure the Royal Mail went just fine.)
I got plenty of pictures, which is good, because by Saturday morning it was all gone, and I was sad.
