We used to have this problem here.  Then a couple of kids got killed, and they close school a lot easier than when we were in school.  We barely got a dusting, and there was a two hour delay today.  (which my wife was very happy about).  I still remember some of the ridiculous rules we had though.  Where they couldn't let us out after a certain time (when it started snowing heavily) until after everyone had lunch.  And the bus drivers were awful.  Mine wouldn't even let me out at my house, not wanting to go into the neighborhood because of the bad snow.  I remember my mom being really mad.  


Fairfax is HUGE.  It's the largest county in Virginia.  So it's not too surprising that it's trending BIG on twitter.
