You getting snow or rain?

My boy just called me after night patrol - cussin' and cursin' about
crazy drivers.

I had to remind him that not all people have dealt with snow. :)

SWS,
It is raining now, but it will probably snow later today. The problem
with southern drivers and snow, goes beyond the fact they are
inexperienced driving on snow and the fact that the state does not have
the equipment to clear the roads. The snow in the south is normally a
very wet icy snow covering a sheet of ice. Forget about driving, it is
unsafe to walk on the stuff.

The last real blizzard we had in Atlanta (about 1983)they had news
coverage of cars stopped on the expressway. They were not moving at
all, yet they were slowly sliding off the expressway due to the crown of
the road.

I have spent a lot of time driving in upstate NY, and New England, and
their is no comparison between driving in your snow and our snow. When
you add inexperience southerners who very rarely drive in snow and
northern drivers who think they know how to drive on snow, you are in a
world of hurt.
