as if mcmaster is the kind of school to bother rescheduling tests for some 30cm snow.
or at best, pull the "you're adults, you should know better to leave earlier" excuse.

I don't have school on Wednesdays. If we do have a snow day, I hope it's a day when I actually have class!

I had trouble deciding which "no" option to choose. I eventually chose the last one because it seems more intriguing.

One of my profs preemptively cancelled Wednesday's class (though we are just moving the class to Thursday's lecture time, which the prof had cancelled for the whole term, so it's not like we're really missing anything).
But I doubt there will be a snow day. It will probably just take a long time to get to school.

No, we won't have a snow day, because we aren't like Western where every girl looks outside and says, "oh shit, however will I get to school with all this snow? It will ruin my uggs, and the BMW Z4 my daddy bought me is terrible in these conditions. Oh well, better ***** and complain until they give us a day off."

Supposedly, we're guaranteed 15cm, with a max of 30-ish. They say the snow will fall Tuesday night and Wednesday morning (the sweet spot), and we will have whiteout conditions on Wednesday.

Also, some lake effect snow and possible freezing rain to boot!

We're in the eye of the storm. Also one of the nastiest storms in 3 years (which was the last time we had a snow day)
