The problem is media.
In the old days everybody just soldiered on.
Now it’s a 24/7 crisis that demands government to help us all.

“an inch of snow and everyone goes to pieces”

You can thank the “crisis media” for that.

I’m surprised they didn’t name this little event, their good for doing that lately.

I get so sick of that attitude from people who.have no clue about the roads down here. The asphalt has a higher amount of tar to deal with thhe high temps through the summer. On top of that, 90%of the time we getwe usually get rain that freezes u.derneath the snow. I don’t care who you are, driving in a sheet of ice is treacherous.

I believe the last time Atlanta had a problem with snow was 1983.

Since then, the problem with our biennial (yet, according to the media, 'rare') winter storms is sheets of smooth ice covering the roadways of a metro area within an hour or two, as was the problem this time.

Atlanta is not equipped to address that, although it's a frequent occurrence.
