I’m just curious —
You get two inches of snow, Atlanta — just what did you expect the governor or mayor or anybody to do for you — hold your hand???
Grow up —
Uncle Chip.... you come on down here and drive on the layer of ice that is under the 2 inches of snow. Then and ONLY then can you have the privilege of uttering such nonsense as “Grow Up.”
Uncle — it was more complicated than just 2 inches of snow. (I grew up in upstate NY and moved south in ‘73)
When the precip started we were above freezing. (about 6 AM for snowfall start) but by 1-3 PM, depending on where you were we were in the mid twenties, and finished the afternoon early evening in the teens during the heaviest snowfall.
The snow that fell first made the roads wet. It froze in place, then snow fell on top and got packed down.
The ISSUE is that our DOT and the City of Atlanta don’t have a workable plan to get the roads cleared when traffic is heavy with commuters. They didn’t act soon enough, and they lacked the clearing capacity no matter what.
The residents aren’t whining. It was bad for folks trying to get home from downtown ATL.
We live in the distant NE suburbs and are well-prepared for this sort of thing. The ITP folks (inside the perimeter) not at all.
I agree. My point is the continuing smear of Republicans in the media.
The mayor of Atlanta didn’t salt the roads like most everywhere else does before a major storm. HowThe media is going after the Repub governor rather than their commiecrat mayor.
