Doesn't seem to be a good reason that I can see ~ not in a threatened zone, probably less ice than a lot of places Jeffrey ~ and not even a wind hazard..!
You'd assume that a lot of people with kids would have problems getting someone to watch over their London School kids, so unexpectedly, at such short notice..!?
Maybe the power that be want to have a long weekend off, ski-ing somewhere pleasant..?
Who knows...
I live up a hill in the middle of nowhere, in s.w.Scotland, some snow on top of very bad ice, we're currently -6C and that's not taking into account the wind chill factor, and it's set to get worse. The s/s.e.wind's in excess of 30mph with vicious gusts of considerably more than that. Enough to make the roof tiles rattle very badly (that takes a LOT..!).
I doubt our kids are getting off of school tomorrow, Haven't looked to be honest. It didn't cross my mind. We're just 'near' a Yellow Weather Warning area, not in it.

See you all tomorrow COUGH, I will try and get some COUGH sleep.:-(
Night Night..xx :-x

Sleep well Fairy :-x and keep taking the tablets (and cough drops..! 😉 ) and I hope you start to feel you're on the mend in a few days..!
What am I like Jeff ..? I thought yesterday was Thursday. By the time I finally get out of the house with this awful weather forecast to go on possibly for weeks, I'll have raging "cabin fever". :_|

Hello Jeffery, Cat, and Mally 😄
My cough is easing a bit more now, still got a sore froat though. 😮
It certainly is on the big freeze over my side of the hill, so dangerous underfoot.
All local children loving to play out though, many on the field at the back of me with their sledges on the slopes, and many snowmen have appeared.
Keep warm everyone, no going out if you don't need to.:-x

glad to hear your sore throat is better can start talking again
20-01-2013 9:45 PM
Fankoo Jeffery, yep, I can start talking, and singing too..............um, Jeffery, where are you going?.:^O

Hi Fairy :-x
Glad that the cough is easing off (I'm a poet and didn't know if..!)
Hopefully your throat will get a rest now that the cough isn't tearing at it, Sounds like the doc's meds are working well. 😄 Shame about the throat sweets not working (yet!), lol
Certainly sounds as though you've had more than a fair share of snow ~ and that ice ~ Argggghhhhh..! We just have the ice, and it's so cold the flaming stuff won't melt. At least the wickedly cold and biting east wind has clamed down a good bit tonight. Phew.
Hope to see you around soon..! xx

Good one Jeffrey..! :^O
It's our turn to have 'too much snow' ~ it's not good, the depth it's gone to now, and the driving, bitter east wind is back full force. This could be it for weeks now. (Weeps quietly into fast cooling bowl of porridge 😞 ).
22-01-2013 5:26 PM
snow almost gone here, being on the coast we missed much of it, but still very cold, cold wind at present,
22-01-2013 5:29 PM
Good laugh there Jeffery :^O
Such a shame you have so much snow there Cat, so hope it warms up soon and goes.:-D
Then your porridge will stay warmerer. 😄
All the snow has gone now on the main roads, town, and paths there, but still a lot here locally in Lancashire Mally, so cold though.:-(
Keep as warm as can be. 😄
