We're preemptively going to call it a snow day tomorrow, Sunday January 25th, and spend the day at home being cozy and warm with books.
We'll be closed for the day, but will re-open Monday January 26th.
Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience!
Oh, agreed. I'm very much a hot weather person. I'd pick a heat wave over freezing temperatures/snow any day.
I hope you're able to stay cool, though!
Agreed. It's supposed to be quite mild here comparatively, only 20-30cm. Figured we might as well not add to road traffic/be out when it's not necessary, though!
