Schools in Ouachita Parish closed, as did the Courthouse, because of the "threat" of bad weather. And then it sprinkled for like 30 minutes and the sun came out
I can tell you that getting kids already in buses back home after ebr's late cancelation of school the day of the 2016 floods was a cluster. But the answer to your question is "idk, since forever?" You sound old, so we can probably chalk up your "walked 30 miles in tornadoes" embellishment to a faulty memory.

Now they have "flex days" once a week where kids don't go to school. Have yet to figure that one out. What the frick is going on around here????
These two things don't sound related at all. Are you maybe talking about a hybrid schedule due to the pandemic, or the school district in question cutting a day to save costs? The latter is happening in some places around the country.

I feel like y’all have been bitching about this for years now.
To cold schools close
To much rain schools close
To much wind schools close
hurricane hitting within 6 hours landfall schools close
Covid lol fricks your world
The fact that schools closed early today blows my fricking mind.
I’ve literally been dropped off in the worst weather today by the bus and had to walk home down my drive way that’s a least a 1/4 mile.

I think after the one in Moore, Okla hit the schools.

Yep. Had to pick up my kid at 12:15.
It's about lawsuits.

It'll be sad when a trailer park full of kids gets wiped out instead of being in a cinderblock and steel building with layers of interior walls.

About 10 years ago. It’s certainly nothing new.

When kids got stranded at school a few years ago lawsuits drove over precautions.

Yep my boss is off work today because her daughter's school was closed yesterday for impending bad weather today - that looks like it won't even start until around 1 PM.

Because the WW2 generation is almost gone and we have a generation controlling things that doesn’t know how to handle adversity or the thought of something bad maybe happening.
Also injury attorneys caused a lot of this. No common sense is used in tragedy anymore, it’s always someone’s fault and people always want to profit off tragedy. So authorities at schools do all they can to pass on any responsibility to someone else

UGA was canceled for snow circa 2007 for a storm that never hit.
I remember in middle school they canceled the night before because it was supposed to be cold in the morning. Not snow, just super cold.
So its been thing on for a while.
