The other difference is that the roads are usually warm and wet when the snow starts. That leaves a layer of glare ice which requires chains or studded tires to drive on safely. Part of the problem is lack of snow driving experience or equipment, but a significant part is the ice.

True there. I'm a Pennsylvania native and have been driving in snow for nearly 50 years. I have great vehicle with 4WD and good tires, but I know damn well that none of that experience or equipment means a damn thing on ice, which these storms usually turn into down in Dixie.

To me, driving in snow is easy, but I am smart enough to stay the hell of the ice.

Be safe and warm, and don't venture on the highways unless absolutely necessary. This Yankee would not go out either on that ice.

Hey!

Thanks for the confirmation!

High today will be 30, 9 degrees tonight, 34 high on Thursday, so we will be sitting tight until at least Friday.
