Snow Day?
Just wondering, do schools have snow days if there is heavy snow/blizzards with seasons like they did in sims 2 and sims 3?

No, no snow days in TS4 - thank goodness! My TS3 kids lost so much schooling time to snow days it wasn't funny.
Yes! They were a special treat in TS2, but in TS3 it pretty much snowed all winter. And with the Thursday holidays on top, you're pretty much cheated out of an A grade for your kid sims since they never had the chance to go to school.
If you want a snow day in TS4, you can create a holiday on a day with heavy snow and just set it to be a non-working one. It's not as realistic, but at least you have more control.
You actually can disable snow in Sims 3 if you want to, if it’s too much ;) Or use testing cheats to turn heavy snow into light snow. I never do that though and I can’t remember ever playing kids who didn’t get their A grade because of days off, maybe it depends how long you set your winters (in fact the problem for me rather lies in trying to let them not be a success because they always pick up their homework automatically)? I simply don’t recognize this ‘never having the chance to go to school’? Being able to create a holiday seems like a great solution for people who do like a free day when there’s heavy snow though, I agree the more control factor is best.
