Pssh. In my day, we had to walk to school, uphill and against the wind both ways, through the snow, while the Japanese would try to bomb us! You kids don't know how good you have it.
Crikey, that narrows down your demographics a bit. Pescado grew up in an Escheresque landscape, north of the tropics, in the early 1940s, within range of Japanese bombers. ::)

At least going home was downhill. Stop complaining!
No, it was uphill both ways. And I'm not complaining, we LIKED it.
Gwill:
I live in Norway; land of snow and ice and polar bears in the street, and I had never heard of the concept of a Snow Day until a few years ago.
I'm still not sure exactly what the point of it is.
Snow happens! Prepare for it!
J. M. Pescado:
Yes, it is clearly not a concept that has any relevance to Fat Gwilly People.

Oh hush. My dad had to walk uphill both ways EVERYWHERE. It's called West Virginia.
