woot glad i did all that shopping on Friday, when foster Px was having an awesome sale.. We got Rock Hero and Tony hawk game plus school supplies for under 100 bucks. plus they had a blue ray disk player for $40.00 But anyways have fun...
Please let the kids go back to school. I'm tired of almost running over them in the street.
Yeah they are going back only to be off the 6th and have a half day on the 10th.. Remember this is DOD schools, they only go half the time anyways. Half days and full days off of school every other Friday and Wed.
If school does get cancelled where do I find that info? Is there a certain tv channel or something that will give notification? Are the school websites updated with that info?
So if it is a tccor 1 then schools are automatically closed? Or do they actually announce school closings? Sorry I dont know any of this. I have read all the literature they gave out...and while it has a lot of info on typhoons and the kit and all that stuff, I saw nothing about school closings or where to find the typhoon updates etc.
I googled the weather and got a little bit of info....it said something about a typhoon on tuesday. I just didnt know if there was a go-to site that everyone uses. The websites I found were somewhat confusing.
