The grocery stores will be out of bread, milk, batteries, candles, etc., like they'll be socked in for a week.
Bill Engvall has a funny commentary about snow. 1/4" in Texas and they'll shut everything down. A couple of inches in Denver and the folks here are saying "I can still find my golf ball."
One of the DACs that works here is also from an area that gets cold regularly. Her and I laugh our butts off at all the folks dressed up in every piece of snivel gear ever invented.
Just another day in paradise.
Out of the 7 years I was stationed at Hood, I only saw it snow once. Of course, I was deployed almost every winter so I got to see it snow in Northern Iraq and Afghanistan... almost the same thing.

88* and raining 8 miles east of Dangriga, Belize...
Having grown up here I never thought about snow as scary. I moved to Georgia for a couple years and the locals would joke about all the milk, bread and eggs being sold out. Apparently French toast is the food of the apocalypse?Quote:

I was working in an MCI office in Plano, TX, when it was announced there was an ice storm coming in. The MCI management immediately closed the office and ran everybody out like there was a tornado coming. I said "what? Closing the whole place down because of an ice storm? Really?" And they were dead serious! "Out! Pack up and go, NOW!"
So I went out and got some lunch, then sat in a parking lot and watched people trying to drive. It was hilarious! They really DON'T know what the hell to do in that kind of weather! Great entertainment.
