Schools staying closed is a huge fear. For example Pentucket Regional is closed until the 23rd.

Looking at their website, I think you mean the 13th.

I wish I meant the 13th. There was coverage on the news about it and a few headlines int the news paper. Their superintendent did not want to take any risks and they do not have school until the 23rd. Many students there were disappointed , as they are now in school until July first. Many students, although they are not in the same school as me, are in contact with me through things such as facebook and twitter. Personally, I was shocked.
This is also including vacation which is next week (the 16th)

Re: Snow compensation?

Has anyone heard anything about FIRST increasing the withholding allowance? The allowance was increased last year due to a similar 'snow-pocalypse' for a lot of teams, so I'm curious if it'll increase again this year.
