yes it did but not in human history, 300 million years ago India was attached to Antarctica
Not all schools receive snow days just because there is snow on the ground. For instance in the northern part of the country where cities often get heavy or large amounts of snow are more prepared (they have supplies of sand and/or salt to deal with ice as well as many trucks equipped with snow plows). The amount of snow necessary to close schools and businesses could be quite high and usually only happens when it is too dangerous for vehicles to drive until snow can be cleared as much as possible. The southern states which don't receive much snow and therefore don't really need these supplies in large amounts and therefore don't have them readily available for large storms which is why they are more likely to have snow days with very minimal snow on the ground. It could also be that there isn't much snow but the roads are very icy.
fur that blends in with snow
One limiting factor of the Boreal Forest (Better known by its Russian name, Taiga) is the extreme cold temperatures. In winter snow can reach heights over five feet! Obviously some species cannot survive in those types of conditions.Another factor is logging. As we all know, logging is common and happens in forests all over the world. Logging decreases the amount of habitat a population has to live in, so it stops population growth.Finally, the taiga receives little water during winter, so organisms must have adaptions to prevent climate change, for example fir, spruce, and other coniferous trees have thick, waxy needles that prevent water from evaporating.
The only precipitation in the tundra is snow, and rain.
In the Boreal forest, the amount of sunlight varies with the season. In the summer, the both the sun and rain produce heat that melts the winter's snow. During the winter, the sun doesn't shine a lot and the snow builds up.
none
Some predators, like wolves change coats in the winter, gaining warmer, coarser fur for the cold weather, and lighter coloured fur to blend in with the snow.
Tropical rainforests are far too warm to receive snow.
Fort Bragg is on the coast and does not receive snow.
Contiguous areas with similar climate condition and geographically and climatically areas are called biomes. For Asia and North America with a high latitudes areas, they are part of a biome called taiga or boreal forest/snow forest.
The Mojave rarely receives any snow and when it does it is only a trace.
