Less than 1/2 inch of snow closes schools?

If I was a FX County Public School student I would be hesitant to put that on my future resume. A prospective employer would look at that say...."FX County Public Schools? That's where they never have their students in class most of the winter due to buses that wont start and 1/2 inch of snow. I'm not hiring this potato head. He has to be a moron."

plus the late 80s. A little bit in the aughts, too.

Today, Fairfax is a fucking joke, but doesn't realize it. Pathetic.

What makes you think the rest of the country knows or even gives a shit about a Fairfax County snow day, necessary or not? Typical Fairfax County resident, thinks the whole world revolves around him.

Because the FCPS PR machine makes it a full time mission to tell all the other school systems in the country how they are the best

Hahahahahahaha

I don't even live in VA and heard about how fucked up Fairfax County schools are when it comes to weather cancellations.

One potential reason is that this srea has the highest concentration on lawyers on the planet.

God help the entity that would allow their little precious eggshells to slip on the snow/ice/water/sunlight/etc. and bruise their fragile ego.

They would be sued into oblivion.

Not a sermon, just a thought.

I must say, your imagination when it comes to employers is quite vivid.

They've been laughing.

Ridiculous.

Some people are very insular and don't realize that the problems and issues affecting Fairfax County are not unique. Most issues people complain about on FFXU regarding FCPS are faced by any urban school district. Get on the internet and you can find more than a dozen states just today that are making calls on school delays and closing. With varying degrees of actual snow and ice. And the folks there are no doubt complaining about whatever the call is - just like the folks in Fairfax County.

This has happened numerous times over the years. They make a bad decision, then over correct for a while. Then they forget what they learned with the original bad decision, then start the process all over again.

The public complains no matter what they do. That never changes.

Some of the drivers and staff have to commute up from the south, where things were slick and nasty. There are a lot factors to consider with these decisions.

Exactly right. Same cycle of stupidity every year.

The start out closing for anything. Then they blow one and take heat for it. Then they over-compensate. Then as Winter goes on and they realize that they can't keep delaying and closing things forever, the buses magically begin to start and roll in even colder and with worse road conditions than caused closures earlier.

Same shit, different year.

I have to agree with the OP. If someone couldn't drive in the tiny bit of snow we had this morning they should have their permit revoked and be forced to go live in a place where it really snows and learn how to drive.

The problem with driver's around here is they drive in snow likes it's a 80 degree summer day. No adjustment in their maniacal driving habits and their "get out of my way or else I'm more important than you" attitude.

It's not the snow. It's the cold. Many of the buses won't start. Colder places have their buses set up to stay warm enough, or have glow plugs, or fuel additives. It rarely gets this cold here - it's not worth the money to try and make this county's bus fleet Arctic-Ready.

And even if you did?

We have a pretty good furnace and insulation - and our furnace struggled to keep the house warm until 11am. Those trailers kids attend school in? Those things are not well insulated. Add patches of ice all over the school grounds? And an overburdened school furnace in some of the older schools?

That's why we close. It's not about the snow at all. I've got my two kids at home. They practiced math for 2 hours, then did an hour of reading. Now they are watching science documentaries. A kid staying home from school is only a crisis for parents who either can't or won't parent. I feel for people who have to miss work to stay home with the kids - but if the schools close? Then an employer can't punish an employee for absenteeism. If the schools don't close, but leave it up to the parents? The employer can.

Trailers are the worst. There is always a 50/50 whether the heating or a/c is working or not...

What Utopia have you been living in?

The low last night was 25. That is not at all unusual for this area in January. Do you even know what the average low temp is for FX County in January? Didnt think so.

If the schools need new heating equipment they need to buy it. God knows we pay enough in taxes that they can keep the buildings heated. And if you're furnace struggled to keep your house warm last night, you need new shit.

So are you saying FX County schools were closed to day because of the temps? That's not what their press releases have stated. They said it was because of the early morning "snowfall".

And a person who has to stay home to take care of their kid when schools are closed and has an hourly wage type job CERTAINLY does get punished when they cant go to work.

Well, for a start? Stop cursing. Yes, the schools need new equipment. Guess what? The budget won't pay for it. No money = no new equipment.

Yes, missing a couple of days of work is tough. Is it better than the kids go to school, sit in an ice-cold trailer, then end up sick for a week? Add doctor bills to that? Most people, once they have lived through that once, just keep their kids home.

And no - weather in the low 20's is NOT typical for this area. Once in a while, a day or so - yes. But it's NOT a daily thing.

Oh, and it's "your furnace" not "you're furnace" so maybe the person who should be in school? Is you.

I'm not buying it. It wasn't that cold this morning- 20 degress is not out of the ordinary, and should not keep the buses grounded. The cold temperatures if anything improved the traction on what little snow we got. In contrast to most DC area storms, there was less of it the farther West and North that you went. Fairfax screwed up; they are gun-shy after the call last week, and have been extra-cautious ever since.

After what happened last week? They would be stupid NOT to be cautious. As for you not buying it - that's your opinion. I wouldn't stick MY 8 year old in a freezing trailer all day, but if you think that's ok for your child, who am I to tell you different. Oh, right - a pediatrics nurse.......

Seriously, though - it's your kid. Go ahead and shove them out into Hoth-like conditions if you can't stand to spend the day with them. I happen to love mine and don't mind at all spending the day with them.

BS. Watch as we get into February. Through some miracle defying physics those buses will begin starting in 20 degree weather. They'll somehow manage to traverse packed snow and ice on treacherous Fairfax County roads. Those old furnaces will spring to life and everything will be fine unless there's a major dump.

Then at the end of the year the bitching will start anew about it being too hot for the precious little snowflakes and that they shouldn't have unnecessarily wasted all of those days back in Winter.

It figures......lowderra is a typical Fairfax County helicopter mom. Probably drives her little darling to the bus stop which is a 100 yard walk.

Well, Nurse Ratchet, I was always told colds and flu were caused by germs and viruses, not cold temperatures.

The average temp for January in Fairfax VA is 36.4 degrees. You figure out what that calculates to for high and low (since you seem to be a spelling and grammar nazi)

What you said is true but I remember back in the '70's when it snowed and we had to go to class. Was delayed opening but we went. Schools definitely didn't close or open late for what they were calling for today's forecast. The system has pretty much been pussified nowadays.

They have special needs - I drive them to school. I didn't watch them spend weeks in the NICU with pneumonia and cardiac issues to risk their lives. Yes, colds and flu are caused by viruses mostly, germs sometime. But go ahead and get a kid too cold (or too hot) for an extended period of time? Immune systems take a hit.

By the way? It can go the other way too. Remember when Alaska had that heat wave and they had to close schools? 90+ weather and no air conditioning. http://www.climatecentral.org/blogs/all-time-heat-records-broken-in-alaska-heat-wave-to-continue-16131

Hmmmm. How did I mess it up? Technically, "Is you" is a sentence fragment, but those are more accepted if people tend to use the sentence fragment in common spoken language.

You can't be serious. We have 20 degree mornings ALL THE TIME here. You want you school closed for that? As a nurse, do you recommend that children not go to school at all? After all, it is their close proximity to other children that causes them to get sick...
Get real. Fairfax closed the schools today over a dusting of snow. I rode my MOTORCYCLE to DC from Fairfax today. The roads were fine!

'Glad that you love your snot-faced progeny. How do you spent the day with them while working as a nurse in pediatrics?

FX County closed schools today because the people in charge are a bunch of overpaid wimps who are unable to think for themselves and only care about how many phone calls they may have to field from overprotective, litgious Fairfax helicopter parents like this wack job lowderra.

I guess you've never heard of 1) working weekends or 2) working night shift or 3) working double shifts?

I'm guessing you don't have kids. Most parents I know do not refer to other people's children as "snot-faced progeny". It's considered rude.

I don't believe in suing. When the disaster last week I just kept my kids home. Why sue? That's pointless. Neither did I call, except the attendance line to let them know I couldn't get my car up the hill, and to wish them good luck. If overprotective means my kids are safe and warm, then, yes I am.

If disagreeing with your opinion means I'm a wack job? Wow. Nice to know you guys are confident enough in your masculinity to be threatened by my opinion. And from the tone on this board? I'm guessing most of you are 1) male, 2) young, and 3) not parents.

According to your link, the average January low is 23.7 degrees. It is roughly the middle of January. So, it is VERY normal for us to be in the 20s during the overnight and early morning hours at this time.

I remember as a kid it would take at least four inches to shut down fcps. We'd wake up with a couple inches of snow on the ground and hope the radio would at least say an hour late.
We could also carry pocket knives in school and smoke in the smoking lounge in the 70's/early 80's

that's what average means Wrote:

OK, you got me on that one. I still think it's best to be cautious - but yes, you are correct - evidently it's typical.

This is the most pretentious post ever. If you "happen to love" these inbred degenerate special needs rugarats that came out of you nasty fetid baby cannon, spend some time with them instead of posting here all day.

Now would you also like to retract this statement you made?....."It's not the snow. It's the cold. Many of the buses won't start".

We all know why schools were kept closed today and it had nothing to do with the overnight temperature.

Sounds to me like you should have called VDOT. The condition of the roads has nothing to do with the school system. If anyone failed it was VDOT.

After viewing that - I certainly hope you are NOT a parent. I spent the entire day with them, thank you. They are reading now (way above grade level - special needs doesn't mean mentally inferior, dear). Do I have your permission to be online now? Oh, wait. I don't need your permission. Oh, and "fetid baby cannon?" I'm guessing you aren't a girl (because if so, you would have one) and you probably don't like girls. Which is fine.

I dont think you've been with your kids. I think you've been with a bottle of wine (screw top)

No, I'm not retracting that one. It was an issue a couple of days ago - it's a reasonable assumption. As for the "we all know" - no, we don't. You have your opinion, I have mine. http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/fairfax-school-buses-wont-start-many-students-face-delays/2014/01/24/96d7088e-84ff-11e3-8099-9181471f7aaf_story.html

You are welcome to think whatever you like. Strongest thing I've had today was my Orange Spice herbal tea, amusingly. From the hostile tone of your voice, I'm guessing my assumption about your sexual preferences were spot on, then? It's ok, you know. There is nothing wrong with being gay. Denial doesn't help.

lowderra, "dear", I feel awfully sorry for your family. Liking women and liking you are two entirely different things.

I thought your name was "huh" - possible it's not several people insulting me? Just one or two, hiding behind multiple names? Makes sense. I admire your persistence, though! I'm off to feed my family some dinner and maybe some ice cream, and then possibly watch some TV with them (they like Mythbusters, go figure) you have a lovely evening too, I hope. Talk to you....well, never probably. It's been real.

Thank God this yenta found something else to do besides post on FU!

News Flash: Nobody here gives a shit about what your kids eat or watch on TV. If you plan to comment here again, stay on topic.

Really.

i'm going to go ahead and throw in the towel on lowderra's behalf -- she never even realized she was being trolled all day.

I don't think she was trolled per se. There were some unkind comments, but I think they stemmed from the initial condescending lines, like "A kid staying home from school is only a crisis for parents who either can't or won't parent.", and all the holier-than-thou one upmanship.

LOL. You were MY entertainment dear. I love watching men be stupid. Even better? Unlike the lowest whore? YOU? You were free. :) Copy and paste means that I got to share your idiocy on Facebook. My friends found you horrifying. I found you pathetic. We all had a good laugh.

By the way - here is the REAL weather details. January is the cruelest month, moron. By February, it's 2.5 degrees warmer. Seriously, it took you this long? It's not some kind of Fairfax School Magick - it's just science.

http://www.eachtown.com/Virginia/City/Fairfax-Station%3B43380/weather_records.html

Good thing neither one of you actually HAS a kid. That would be hard though, since you probably have never actually had sex.

The first one that can actually find me in real life, and post the link (hint, duh, youtube, morons!) gets the prize. What's the prize? Looking like the 2nd most stupid person on this thread.

:)

Billy Goats Gruff, Idiot. Next time? Have the courage to use your REAL name.

You just better hope eesh doesn't read this thread.

By the way, your attempts at board retaliation against these pros is laughable.

"Since you probably have never actually had sex"........Are you a 9th grader?

Thank you. Yes, I am condescending, and that's bad, but I also think of myself as a responsible parent. I have faults, and I will admit them, but I also take responsibility for my children.

I don't know why anyone would be interested in looking you up, on Youtube or elsewhere, but reading this thread I get it, that all long you were the troll. Well played!

I'm 43. I HAVE kids. I know what it is like to raise them. You? As for eesh? I have no idea who he or she is. Since I have said nothing that offensive? I doubt I have much to fear. Unless they are a misogynist, or someone that thinks it's ok for someone else to use hate speech, etc on their hateful behavior toward special needs children, why would I care? Unless eesh = Hitler, I'm not afraid. If it does? Well, spouse works for government. So you might want to start deleting now........

Off to research eesh.....

And here is the other question. You wanted Fairfax County Public Schools to pay attention?

You got it.

You have to have very thick skin to post on the underground. Don't let these people get to you. You get a lot of assholes on here. Ignore them. We also like Mythbusters. It is one of the few shows we can watch as a family and not have to deal with bad language, naked people, etc. Plus, they learn something. I also love orange spice herbal tea.

Really.

Wow. I found her. No judgment, everyone chooses their own lifestyle. I WILL say though.....

.....I have pics up on the internet. Nobody has posted them. Possibly because I am a boring and reasonable individual.

Put up or shut up.

You googled. You found me. I wasn't as embarrassing as you hoped I would be, therefore, you didn't post. Bonus points if you find the bit about Plano, TX. Just in case anyone has an IQ over 100. ;)

Found it! Thank you. Rather tacky, boobs = gun, but that's just me. Thank you though, seriously! If I hadn't already found it, it would have saved me time.

Hugs and have a great evening!

If you want it to be $10 charity donation, you have to find and post the one about Plano, TX. ;)

lowderra = Rachel A. Lowder, Fairfax VA

Too easy.

Thanks! If you were 15 years younger I would let you caress me but currently you're a couple decades past your prime.

Donations can be made here :

http://www.fairfaxunderground.com/donations.html

oh and I'm not sure what the Texas thing is about... but DAMN I would love a night with that fine looking Amanda Price!

Cute cat too ;)

Sorry! My daughter is married to a vet! Hands off! :)

The cat is elderly and dearly beloved. My kids love her a lot - she is the best thing that ever happened to make them learn to love other beings. And YES! I am way too old for you. If you really want the Plano thing, just ask, I have a sense of humor. Seriously. :)

Do you want the donation made in anybody's name or is general ok?

Also, good grammar! If you play nice, you are willing to play nice, feel free to join on FB. Code word - name of the breed of the cat. There are 2 secret rooms - if you qualify, you get in.

For some reason, the ugly thugs pursue Lay Me and try to hurt her, but not before the next impulsive (my sister said “stupid” was a better word - the nerve of that Phillistine!) adventure. Lay Me realizes that she’s almost 22 and still has not children (that pesky biological clock, ya know!), yet can’t bear to leave her father to marry, and is saving her virginity for a Harvard Man. So it’s off to the Fertility Clinic. But as she exits Breeders, Inc. - the ugly thugs descend, capture her, and dump the frightened (but only lightly bruised) princess off on a ranch outside Plano.

So, I have to know (just b/c I'm curious) were you one of the insulters, the defenders, or the lurkers?

Inquiring minds......

The cat is a Siamese, awesome cats I used to have one. Just watch out for kidney failure.

And alright.. fill us in on the Plano thing...

Tell your daughter Amanda to get on FFXU, we need some fine young looking female posters such as herself. And are you sure she's your daughter? Prom night?

None of the above. Just another anonymous psycho.

Seriously (and you can trust this coming from an anonymous psycho), you are way too easy to find and this isn't a good forum to be encouraging that. Not that I'd expect that anyone would do anything serious, but there are lots here who will make your life a living hell otherwise just to fuck with you. Standard practice around here and many have learned that lesson the hard way

Since you seem like a nice person other than being mildly irritating, I'd advise you to abandon this thread now. Never return to it or this forum using your name or any other id that you use anywhere else.

Run away and don't look back.

You're welcome.

If you still can't find the (real) email address, just admit it, and let me know how to contact you. Otherwise, it was nice, and thanks for being polite!

Thank you. She's actually NOT my daughter. Step. Both father, brother, and spouse are military though, so anybody messing with her better have a DNR.

Thanks again.

DNA...

I'm just a physcho lurker, "lay me" is someone else, a fellow ffxu physcho.

And don't worry the worst that will happen to you is your photos will be posted, and maybe a call to your house (unlikely). Unless you're a true nut job like mr. Misery you'll be fine. You can research him, he has had the swat team at his house over this site.


You owe Cary $5, if you've managed to recover from the sequester, it's time to pay up.

“...but if the schools close? Then an employer can’t punish an employee for absenteeism.” What?! Go back to your fantasy world. You won’t be needed anymore.

This is correct. Go to the front of the class. Did you hear that students? The correct answer is: They have no balls.

Wow been a while since Ive seen someone trolled as hard as this lowderra - next time pick a more obscure screen name yours is too easy to find on facebook. Anyway take advise from the movie War Games - '...the only way to win is not to play the game...'

oh and it was absurd they closed school for the whole day imho

Can't believe this broad stayed up until 11:30 last night digging her own FU grave.

And the cherry on top is the threats because she has military in her family. Like the military can stand up to FU psychos.......LOL!

I just read through this and all I can say is WTF?

What a pretentious Fairfax House Frau!

This guy isn't joking. The first rule of this forum is DO NOT REVEAL PERSONAL INFORMATION - especially if you're a woman. Most of the people here are harmless trolls - but there are some people on this forum with serious mental health issues. Posters have been stalked before.

Personally, I'd welcome another witty female voice, but if you want to post here please do so under another name. That goes double if you have what some (religious nuts and bigots) perceive as inflammatory political viewpoints.

So Be Careful, are you saying religious nuts and bigots do not have inflammatory political viewpoints? and this grouping of religious nuts and bigots... that sounds a little narrow-minded. I’m not sure you should be advising this person as if you are of stable mind. You sound a little unbalanced. Thus your name, I guess. Thanks for the warning.

I think she got the message. Not a peep today, at least under that name.

Um, no. Exactly the opposite.

Really? I think we all know a religious nut or bigot when we see or hear one. Your logic escapes me.

Right back at ya.

> Thus your name, I guess.

Huh???

No warning given - none needed.

You again? figures. Mr. Throw-up
