Actually, if we got 2 INCHES of snow, everything would shut down! Nobody knows how to drive in it! I used to work in Paradise CA (just below the place where that family got lost in the snow). Everytime it snowed, all the old folks jammed to the store to stock up--lots of fender benders! We're on the Sacramento Valley floor, so snow is a real big deal, but we'll never get enough to make a snow angel, just dirty wet gravel angels!
