Up here in the cold weather states it takes a foot of snow just to get school canceled for the day, over a foot to start closing businesses and two or more feet before non essential services shut down. Down in the south it seems that a general panic sets in at about 1 inch of snow.
yea, lol, down here people do tend to say "HOLY CRAP ITS SNOW" followed by a large BOOM from a car crash.

Guess its cause most get it pretty rarely, and the Department of transportation isnt prepared is some places.

Y'know oddly enough the first storm of the season up here always produces a large number of crashes too. It's like somehow even over the short northern summer many of us manage to forget how to drive in the snow.
