[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One inch of snow and there's a two hour school delay (surprisingly not closed for the day). No self-respecting northern city would delay school because of a mere dusting like this.[/quote] No northern city would fail to plow like this whole area seems to have, either.[/quote] Actually, IME a one inch snow event does not trigger an all-plow alert. You just drive in it. Now I think we have more than one inch here- it was pushing 3 inches in northern Silver Spring- but even during bigger events in the snow belt roads are still messy. The plows can't always keep up with it. People just learn to drive in it. I am a transplant who is NOT a good winter driver- far from it- and was glad I could walk to the metro this morning. I just dispute the notion that because northern cities have more plows, their roads are pristine all winter long. Not true.[/quote]
