this thread is funny! who woulda thought ice and snow are different down south.
Please teach me new stuff about your neck of the woods.
what temp does water freeze down there?
are you allowed to call it "black ice" when it exists, or am I being racist? (for those who don't know, look it up before responding) wink

what happened was you guys got a snow storm, congrats! I'd be willing to bet 99% of those who live down there have either A.never seen one
B.never driven/lived where they have them frequently
C.those who have, have been gone long enough to forget how to drive in them

hell we have folks here who every fall when it snows have to relearn how to drive. most don't drive cautiously and are oblivious to anyone else besides themselves.
what is funniest to me is the bread and milk shortages. out here beer is the first thing to be gone from the shelves.
BWAHAHAHAHA

so what if your highways and roads are closed for a few days, stay the [bleep] home! a little common sense goes a long ways. and for those of our members here who did know but just got trapped in the chaos, that sucks. sorry for you. but the ones whining that not enough was done by other people (especially in govt) STFU. you are ultimately responsible for your own well being.
welcome to winter bitches! smile

look up winter storm Atlas before you start flaming wink
