[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 339947, member: 1514"] Ok...I didnt have the chance to jump on here till now...lol. Years ago it was much snowier in the mid Atlantic... much like it is getting hit this year. We had snow days but I dont remember my Dad taking off many days from work. Of course, I dont remember him ever taking off days from work! He even worked on Christmas Eve! Now that I have lived in both NC and SC for the past 26 and a half years, we have not had many bad snow conditions but when it happens they do take it more seriously than most people might think necessary. Schools close early just for the prediction. Businesses do close. But we do have back roads that get bad. We dont have the plows and salt needed that other areas do. Just this year I heard that we got that brine mix that can be put down ahead of a storm! It was put down on our interstate. However, we are experts at handling a hurricane over here on the East Coast. While we may not do snow and ice well, stand back and watch us work when a hurricane comes through. We do wonders!
