When is a Snow Day not a Snow Day?

I woke up this morning to the news that the kids are out of school on a snow day. 

Whaaa?  This is our deck as of about 10 minutes ago.

I'm not complaining, I promise!  I'm sure it will start snowing any minute now.   ... Any ... Minute ... Now. 

On the "damned unlikely to happen" list of things for the day - my office is closed because of the weather.  You know, the office that is geographically located IN HOUSTON?  Yeah.  They are getting snow and ice today, too, but true to form, nearly everyone is able to work remotely.  Sometimes a snow day is really not a snow day at all.
