The Damn Yankees are the ones who are casually driving, and wondering what's
the big problem anyway?

They find out right quick. Driving in New England after a snowstorm
isn't much of a problem--the plows make a pass through the major roads
and get some sand down very quickly. Without the plows we get stuck or
go slipsliding away just like Southern folks. A snowstorm in Atlanta is
a different experience from one in Ohio. I never had to put the chains
on in Ohio or in Connecticut, but I did once in Atlanta.

We had The Blizzard of 1993 which paralyzed Birmingham and surrounding
area to an incredible degree(no pun). It would have been a minor
inconvenience for a Northern city but what hit us was way outside our
experience with snowfall. We could swap them dang Yankees a few
tornadoes for a couple of blizzards. ^_^

Drivivng south on I-75 in early Feb. 1996 we entered Georgia and saw,
northbound the state snow clearing fleet - two road graders and an
actual one way snow plow.
