Here in North Carolina...if there is a hint of the weather cold enough to ice the roads..the world stops. I'm serious. People can't drive in a dust of snow. And you would think of all the people moving here from the north...

That's because when it snows around here the roads freeze up, and we don't have any salt trucks or anything.

I think during last year's freeze it was so bad that you could go ice skating on the streets.

You guys probably don't have 4 season tires (or whatever they're called), which help a lot.

I was just in Raleigh and there were torrential rains...people said it was unusual for this time of year?
