Considering entire states manage this just fine, that's not a really good excuse. This area just doesn't care to prepare itself and would rather shut down than spend the money to prepare for winter storms. Thats fine, you just have to deal with it, but it is always going to be annoying to those of us who have lived in places where, for example, schools never close if it's snowy or icy, they only close if it's too cold to stand out at the bus stop (and that's well below freezing).[/quote]
The amount of snow this are gets is not enough to invest in equipment and more importantly man power on retainer to plow all the secondary and tertiary neighborhood streets so its safe for school busses etc. so they buildnin snow days and close. There are winters with like 3" of snow total, no jurisdiction wants to spend the limited funding on things not used. [/quote]
