I’m an upstate New Yorker who lived in Virginia for a year. Two inches of snow in Va and no signs of life.
I saw the same thing when I was at Ft Bliss once when it snowed. El Paso was utter chaos. It was like bumper cars. No one knew how to drive. It was quick comical at times to see people walk with long stride steps on snow and ice. No center of balance + a slippery surface + gravity = fun for a northern boy.
