March 2, 2012 quickly became a more hectic day than usual for Henryville, Indiana school bus driver Angel Perry. Two super-cells, thunderstorms with rotation and a prolonged updraft, bore down on the town located 20 miles north of Louisville, Kentucky. One of the storms had a history of tornados.

With harsh winter weather pounding the Midwestern and Eastern regions of the U.S., school officials are responding to complaints about repeated school cancelations.

 It’s been 31 years since San Antonio residents have seen their driveways blanketed in snow that has reached a record high of 13.5 inches. 

Hundreds of schools and more than a dozen school districts close amid several wildfires that choked the Los Angeles area.
