The temperatures remain incredibly low from November to February, accompanied by the brisk winds and the fact that the snow is so bright, you are essentially blinded every time you step outside. In Wisconsin, a snow day only happens under these conditions: over 2 feet of snow, under -30 degree temperatures (without windchill), a car has no feasible way of leaving the driveway, and the guy who drives the snow plow looks outside his window and just says, 'Nope.'Īlso, it's freaking cold. I've heard that in the South, a 'snow day' happens if there is even a 50% chance of getting an inch of snow.
