My parents' home back in the south got 7 inches of snow the other day. That's a pretty rare event, especially these days.
I can't believe that my former state got a Winter Storm Warning and I am yet to see one up here in New England... It makes me sad. I know the winters have been weaker up here, but I still expected a winter storm or two...
Winter weather can change from year to year. Those who have to deal with the cold, ice and snow normally have equipment and machines designed to deal with this form of weather. But in some southern states where winter only happens every now and then, they do not know what to do. An inch of snow can cause a cataclysm. They have no snow shovels, snow blowers, salt to melt and remove snow, shoes/boots that are designed for walking on ice, etc. So it can cause them more problems then those that are use to this type of weather.
