In some parts of the world there is such a thing as a snow day. You know, school is cancelled, some businesses close, and everybody stays home and goofs off. I guess a snow day could be seen as a dangerous thing - but I always thought of them as a fun thing - you know building snowmen, making snow ice cream, drinking hot chocolate, or warming by the fire.

Well, today was a Typhoon day for us.
Typhoon day means stay inside or go outside and get drenched or knocked on the head by flying debris; not exactly a fun thing!
