Per Robert Green:
It was amazing in Buffalo how many people had snowmobiles and pickups with
plow attachments. It was also amazing how quickly emergency personnel got
around during storms that just paralyze NYC and DC.

The one time I got up to Lake-Effect-Snow Country it looked like they
did not plow the roads. Instead, they ran construction-type graders
over them to keep the snow level and free of ruts. The only blacktop I
saw was a rough circle about 50' across where the two main streets of
Watertown NY intersected.

Is that SOP up there?
