This time, it was definitely necessary.  We got a ton of freezing rain overnight so there is a nice thick coating of ice everywhere.  Extremely dangerous for driving.  Schools are closed basically all over the state.

I’ve already done some grading, returned some work e-mails, and entered a bunch of data into the online system for the double-period class that I teach.  I have a bit more to do and then I will be officially caught up on annoying school tasks and will feel free to take the rest of the day OFF!!
