Can 1:1 Prevent Snow Days???

While I am not an advocate for shortening the school year, as we hunker down and prepare for Hurricane Sandy, I am curious if schools/districts that are 1:1 are able to bypass snow days/make up days?

With tools such as Google+, Facetime, Google docs, content geared to flipped & blended classrooms, project based classrooms, etc. it seems like make-up days due to short term school closings (1 day) & where electricity is not the issue, could be made to go the way of the Dodo.

Does anyone know of any states or schools that have moved in this direction?
