In all fairness, the snow was more like ice and the highway department was caught with its pants down. I skidded the whole way to work and consider myself one of the lucky ones.
~~Silk - You must have lived on the only steep hill in Saint Louis!
Marcia - I think the highway department has learned to accept blame the second it begins snowing.
When I lived down in Columbia, they were ridiculously unequipped to deal with snow, and everyone drove like fools on it. We had a 2 to 3-inch snowfall one morning, I got up, headed into work, and arrived to an empty building. They had closed a bunch of places, no joke. It was very surreal.
Yeah. It's because of all those steep hills.

Mare - I understand that when it snows in Atlanta there are constant accidents because no one has snow tires.
