TMEP 309 fortunately has something to say on this subject:

"When the USPTO is officially closed by executive order of the President or by the Office of Personnel Management for an entire day because of an unscheduled event, such as adverse weather conditions, the USPTO will consider that day to be a "Federal holiday within the District of Columbia" under 35 U.S.C. §21(b)<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__tmep.uspto.gov_RDMS_TFSR_current-23_current_sec-2D7666929d-2Dca2b-2D4b63-2D87fb-2Dbe6839398f60.html&d=DwMFaQ&c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&r=laE26KlATwcl6WmS-u-lWOwRzUwWk0awqjzSi3uodMc&m=e7-bxmz2sWNdJ51IwWs0FtjLsn7QJ-qKzN19vSHOhrFRz_eVBHhDR8zQAztlOeX7&s=hMhDDRBK_bG3MoCIYJXIWQvUlBLCKW1u6Ku4mJExax8&e=>.   37 C.F.R. §2.2(d)<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__tmep.uspto.gov_RDMS_TFSR_current-23_current_r-2Ddd3769b4-2Dba32-2D4c1e-2Dae39-2Dfcf547198176.html&d=DwMFaQ&c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&r=laE26KlATwcl6WmS-u-lWOwRzUwWk0awqjzSi3uodMc&m=e7-bxmz2sWNdJ51IwWs0FtjLsn7QJ-qKzN19vSHOhrFRz_eVBHhDR8zQAztlOeX7&s=SJsSueFtnrIVpsuYRp0Z634Z8GF5UdI9ZFm30aBfNLM&e=>.

Yes but does the President's order say that this will be a federal holiday in the District of Columbia?  if not, then we would not be sure that we get a pass on having to file a response that day.
