Re: Winter Storm Jonas

Okay, here's the thing, oh-holier-than-thou anon. Up in places such as Scandinavia or Canada, they can deal with large amounts of snowfall. I grew up in a small town in Canada, and I would often walk to school between snowbanks well above my head. It wasn't a problem though, since they had the proper equipment and resources to remove massive amounts of snow, so the sidewalks and streets were always plowed.

But a lot of these places where this winter storm hit, they either don't have the resources to take care of snow much or at all, or they don't have the resources to take care of the enormous amount of snow they were getting in a short period of time. I currently live in North Carolina, and considering that in an average winter we don't get snow at all or maybe just a dusting of it, we only have minimal equipment to take care of snow or ice. Because it's not considered a wise use of resources. So even though we only got maybe about 4 inches of snow and some ice, that was enough to practically shut down the city I live in. The main roads were okay, but any side streets were practically impassable.

So while you're sitting there on your high horse, maybe you should do some research first before passing judgement.
