    It really is. Some adults do get actual snow days though in jobs you can’t do under the conditions.

      I fondly remember the Beast from the East blizzard in Ireland in early 2018. Got a whole paid week off work because the entire country was basically in lockdown since Ireland isn’t used to that sort of weather condition. Cozied up at home, and one day I put on my winter gear and walked from Dublin to Howth and back. I was the only person outdoors. No cars, no busses, no trains, no pedestrians. It felt like 28 Days Later, just without the Zombie apocalypse. ^^
