How does my state handle the snow? Well I'm originally from Massachusetts, but right now I live in Tex-sucks.
And when it snows even 1 centimeter here, rednecks freak out, swerve on the road and hit each other (usually they do this for no other reason than that they are drunk after watching football), schools are cancelled for several days, children try to build snowmen but they don't know how because it never snows enough down here so they come out looking horrible, and people bitch about how the 25 degree weather is too horribly cold for them.
You may think I'm exaggerating, but I swear to you that I'm not.
We have more to worry about flash floods than snow. Last year the streets were flooded so bad that it was over the windshields of peoples cars. I still had to make it to the university to take a final which wasn't cancelled for some reason, and I did - wading through water up to my waist at times.
