    Who all is getting hit with this massive snow storm?

    Getting pummeled here in West Tennessee. Probably the most snow I've ever seen and it's supposed to last for a while. Predicting 5-8 inches but looking worse than that. 2-3 inches usually shuts the town down. Lol

    Your town is weak

    Were expecting 7 inches up here, pretty standard stuff for us tho, business will go on as usual, no shutting down of towns over that

    Winters are actually better up here. I was honestly worried - colder and lots of snow.

    Turns out it is better... we get snow, not much ice. Plus they are prepared to clear it here, hard to justify budgeting for it down there.

    Our terrain is more hilly than you folks up north. Also people here can not drive in the snow. They think they can still drive the speed limit.

    You know we don't have the vehicles and equipment for this type of weather when the salt trucks are getting stuck lol.

    I'm just glad I didn't go into work then get told to go home.

    Actually, the terrain is similar up here... arguably more hilly. I'm near Cincinnati, not too far up there.

    These places just have better prep, that's the real difference.

    There are no shortage of hills up here, thats for sure.

    But the key to driving in the snow is give yourself plenty of space, and slow it down and not go over 30-35.. Sliding around over 35 is terrifying and you will lose your **** and crash. Your tires tread also matters a lot.

    yea the prep work and plowing the towns do before and during the storms make all the difference.
