Well, Chuck; I must say we don't even worry for remote chances of snow either; yet we get CCs in our local B&Ms... :smokingbo

you guys really need to come visit us now. over the weekend, we go Ice and rain. So now the shit load of snow we have is covered in over an inch of ice. better yet the temps have only been in the TEENS so therefore the salt won't even melt the ice. GOD I LOVE THIS STATE!!

Let's see. Live in Wisconsin....snow....Hmmmmmm. Yep. I think it is where you live dude. Not much snow here
I lived in CA (mostly San Diego, plus college in Davis) from ages 1 to 25. While I enjoy visiting southern California in the middle of the "winter", I love living in Wisconsin, cold and all.

Yeah but in madison you get a lot less snow and cold than 300 miles north where we are.

I lived 25 years outside of Boston, east side of Connecticut and Grand Rapids, Michigan. You are not fooling me. :agreesmil

You know I am with you guys, been there done that. Just got to the point where being warm 365 days is a really nice thing.

O wow,,,have been there and done that. Not to that extent but the cold and icy weather in Boston for 5 years and KC, Mo. for 10 I had my fill of below 0 temps and black ice. It got so bad I had to buy a "disposable" car just to drive in the winter time. "Disposable" car meaning the cheapest care I could buy at the time,,,Nissan Sentra. This poor car had dents on all fenders,,bumper crooked,,,rusted,,I hit more hay bales and ran into more ditches that I can tell you.

I don't know how people do it year after year,,,,the last straw for me was when I went out after work to go home,,,I couldnt get into my car because the locks were frozen and finally with a lighter I got it melted but couldnt get into my car because the water froze in the door jam and I have to get a buddy to get his car with a rope,,,yeah, you're going to love this,,,we tie rope thru the door handle then back to his car and tell him to back up s l o w l y,,,,he hits his brakes and continues to slide and my door now becomes a tobaggon as it is seperated from the car totally. Soooo, I get in the car just to start it,,,no dice cuz its been sitting in the parking lot for 12 hours at 15 below. Deader than a hammer,,,,now I'm pissed. The next day I go to work and give them notice I am transferring and never looked back!! F/n snow and ice,,,never again!

Least people clear the snow in your neck of the woods.
In seattle they decided just to pack it down and not de-ice the streets because the salt they were planning on using could be bad for the Puget Sound, which by the way is SALT WATER!!

Man that's a lot of the white stuff. We pray for some of that down in these parts. We usually get one snow a year worth anything and a few ice storms.

Mind sending a little bit this way I'd love to take the kids out in it?
