I grew up in Montana for elementary 1991 - 1996. Never once had a single snow day. Never once had an indoor recess. Moved to Spokane WA in 1996, and first day of school it was barely raining and recess was in the gym. My sister and I were so confused!

LOL, yes pretty much the whole coast shuts down with a dusting of snow. The wife and I was out in Portland visiting my sister in the late 90s. We got up and was going to Seattle that day. My sister was like no it is snowing you can't travel. I grew up in rural South Dakota so to me that was a nice day. She said she was not worried about my driving but said someone who had no idea how to drive in snow would run into me.
