It's not the fact that it was bad weather itself, but what the bad weather lead to. There are multiple school districts that have had schools closed for 5-10 days at a time, which is different. If all of these districts had the resources to combat the weather early, and kept schools open, perhaps FIRST wouldn't have granted the withholding allowance addition. FIRST is giving an exception due to circumstances beyond most teams' control. The bad weather also lead to huge shipping delays for most companies, which is also something that is beyond most teams' control. Now perhaps, if the delays were in the teams' control, maybe FIRST wouldn't give an additional 15 pounds for withholding...
