Has the weather been cooler than average where you are?

@CestManan We actually had a couple of brief heatwaves here. Summer isn't over yet so we could still have another one, lol.

Where is that Inverness. ? @railfan1984

@Pretzel Northern Illinois

@latinbutterfly *packs my bags and heads north*

@Sutten Oh my. Winter doesn't start here until December 21st.

@latinbutterfly thats the time we have Summer

@Zonuss just wait till about the third week of September when we get hit with a scorching heat wave and then people will suddenly think it's the end of the world again

@CestManan Out West maybe. But usually down in the Appalachian South we are much cooler and.mild in September.

@CestManan they would mainly cancel the buses when I was in school. They don’t want the teachers and students coming into school when it’s -45 C and colder. It got to -54 C this year.

The school was surrounded by water and you couldn’t get to it. My kids were so happy 🙄

@CestManan @iamonfire696 I grew up in Chicago, and the Chicago Public Schools would only shut down under the most extreme conditions like a blizzard. I had to wait for the bus in a snowstorm at least once a year.

@latinbutterfly half the students come in from buses in the country and the roads aren’t paved. They can’t have kids in them and risk getting stuck in that weather. Most of the teachers don’t live here and have to travel so if the highways are closed they can’t come but they don’t want people travelling when it’s -50 C (-58 F). We don’t shut down here for a little snow either. It’s gotta be a blizzard.
