Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for December 29, 1987

LOL How true and they still don’t!

errrr actually donw here in south carolina they close school if it sticks in the mornin time. no matter if it is jsut a cuple inches.

Forget a couple of inches! In SC they close everything if there are flakes blowing around on the sidewalk! LOL

i made an account just for this. live in England, it threatens to snow and the country stops

yeah? well in texas if someone even mentions snow they lock down the city.

Well in Pennsylvania, if it snows 3 feet, no one really cares.

Yeah, I’m in Canada… an inch of snow and we call it “October.”

And in West-Germany (geographically, I mean), you get 3 feet of snow over the weekend and people finally put on their snowtires (but no one seriously considers using chains).

im in NC if it THINKS of snowing…THINKS mind you…the entire STATE stops moving

All of England comes to a standstill at the smallest bit of snow. Apart from my school… Every other school will be closed and ours will still be trying to drag people in! :P

I agree with Calvin in part and Hobbes in part – while a storm that drops a mere inch is a disappointment (with snow, the more the merrier!), any snow that sticks is a good thing.

In Colorado, it has to snow more then two feet for some schools to even concider closer or even delayed starts

Too bad, Calvin.

Like Canada, in Dakota we just shrug, and head out to work or school anyway. But those first few snowstorms can be hazardous, until we remember the right reflexes!

But in one strip, Calvin was waist deep and they still didn’t cancel school.

Are you kidding me, be happy that school is closed, who cares about the amount of snow!

In South Florida, even if there’s a smidgen of snow, school’s closed. Of course, the last time that happened was like 45 years ago…
