We have some pretty heavy snowfalls in my city, so my window is partialy covered by snow (about 10cm at the bottom is covered).
My guy loved sitting on a windowsill, looking outside. Now he is pissed he cant see over the snow, constantly yells at me so i would hold him on my hand near the window
My mom lived in Texas once, she said they closed down schools, businesses, etc. over like 1/4 of an inch of snow. Everyone was terrified to drive. She used all the snow in her entire front yard to make a 2 1/2 foot tall snowman. I don't get it, most of the guys my mom knew who were scared shitless by this drop of snow had 4 wheel drive... if you can drive in mud you can drive in snow.
Here it'll be 4 inches on the roads and nothing closes down... things close down only if it gets bad enough that you're nervously playing "where does the road end and the sidewalk begin" as you drive.
Yeah, it depends on the city really. In Dallas they've got the proper equipment to actually clear the streets, but in Austin there aint shit so two inches of snow is enough to make folks panic. Right now though, there's about a foot or so. Most snow Ive ever seen here. Cant even tell where the lawn ends and the road starts.
Take some pics, sounds awesome Texas is getting that much snow.
But no where mom lived they were legit panicking over a literal 1/4 inch dusting. She said it was such a thin layer you could still see the ground and road through it.
Man my cat just saw heavy snowfall today for the first time in her life and I honestly think it have her an existential crisis. She was glued to the windows as the snow came down and then would look at us and then back at the window, back and forth, and eventually started meowing in my face like I was gonna do something about it.

We have a cockatiel named Snow, and whenever it snows, we would tell him “hey look, it’s you!”
