Too dangerous for school? TMJ4 says: go out!

This is stupid. So, a major snow storm is due to hit the city. So major that schools are likely to be closed. Not because of the cold, because of the road conditions. It will be too dangerous to travel the roads to get kids to school safely. So, what does tmj4 suggest? Go out!

Where To Go For Snow Day Fun For Kids

MILWAUKEE – A winter storm is expected to enter the Milwaukee area Tuesday night and continue through Wednesday afternoon. A total of 10 to 14 inches of snow could fall in the area.
Below is a list of places you can take your kids that PLAN to be open Wednesday. Some of these places could close depending on road conditions, so it is best to call before making the trip.

One would think if you could get to Chucky Cheese you could get to school, no?

I know having the kids home can create problems for working parents. But, it's not a good idea to be promoting travel on a day that travel is likely to be dangerous! I thought the advice was always: don't go out unless you really have to. Not only is it dangerous, but you could potentially hinder efforts to control the snow and other emergency vehicles. The Weather Channel is recommending preparations due to conditions and possible power outages.

TMJ4 is recommending going out.

How irresponsible.
