This is so true. Im in the south. If they even hint at possible flurries. Schools close. Banks close. Offices send employees home. Grocery stores are in chaos and national guard is put on alert.

It's all about how equipped the area is for these weather extremes.
I know in AZ, we get baffled when we hear stories about people dying in Chicago at a high of 98*, while I go walk the dog at 110* at 9pm.
It amazes me when Chicago and Buffalo get multiple FEET of snow and resume business as usual within 24 hours.
I’m 3 hours East of Chicago and people around here lose their collective shit if anything more than 6” falls in a day.

I never understood the whole thing about people freaking out because of snow. When I lived in New England, we would get between 1 and 3 storms a week that would drop 12 to 18 inches at a time, almost all winter. Plus it would start snowing as early as October and as late as April, almost every year. If we got less than 100 inches of snow a year, people would sound concerned about the light winter we had.
And that is the key. No snow equipment + people that don't know how to drive in it = disaster

Id agree to the point of DOT... but the mindset of the people is what causes chaos.
As far as DOT where I was at, they didn't plow and salt non-stop like the southern states do. That's why the southern states always run out of supplies and money to deal with it.
What I find really crazy is here in Virginia, they predict a 30% chance of snow tomorrow, and they start announcing government and school closures today... As much as 24 hours before it might start snowing. Absolutely mind-blowing.
The people that should be freaking out are the Mexicans. The got 18+inches of snow an South Central Mexico like a week ago.
