Do home-schoolers get snow days?

For the most part, we have not had real winter weather here. While we have had some cold temperatures (nothing like Minneapolis!), we have not had a good snow. The kids have been bemoaning the lack of sledding. My prediction has held true, and now that it is the week of Valentine's day we are getting a storm. (We've gotten big snow storms on past Valentine's weeks.) However, this storm hasn't been dropping much snow. The ping, ping, ping on the windows lets us know that we are getting freezing rain. Weather experts predict one-quarter- to one-half-inch of ice for our area, with the possibility of a bit more snow at the end of the storm tomorrow afternoon. Jim is pessimistic, and hopes we won't lose power.
