It is snowing here in northern Alabama right now, too. We are supposed to get several inches, and this will effectively shut the whole area down. No one here knows how to drive in snow, some try to do it anyway, and end up sliding off the icy roads, and most people know enough to just stay home if they are able to do that.
Being from north Idaho, I am used to the snow, but I would be totally happy not to have it any more. At least here, it arrives in inches and not feet, and stays for days and not months.
