To my knowledge the build season has never been extended by HQ (I stand corrected, though as Joe said, it was only by hours). Previous years have compensated large amounts of storms with a higher withholding limit to bring to competitions, though.
I wouldn't be surprised if FIRST is phasing out those sorts of compensations though-- it seems like every year there's a group of teams with significant lost build time.
