That "you'uns" to you. Damn yankee. . .

And I get to say that because I am a Damn Yankee. The snow down here doesn't bother me; the other drivers are terrifying!

Most can't drive in the rain down there lol, I worked just off 59 next to east lake park in Birmingham, it sounded like a demo derby out there sometimes.
 
My wife is from New England.
They can’t drive any better in the snow than anybody else!
They “think” they can because MA DOT salts the roads and local governments plow the roads. (Contract with individuals).

Long time aquaintance was a snow bird from Mass. I asked him how he ended up in middle Ga? He said that he loaded up the Dodge 4x4 and headed south! He said that at the first fuel stop that someone asked him what that was on the front of his truck (snow plow attachment), that he’d gone far enough!!!

My father in law had a set of studded snow tires on an extra set of wheels in the garage. He was a retired firefighter lieutenant, so would take 4x4 truck and tires to fire house at first hint of snow forecast. (Free tire swap).

It’s really about preparation. Tuscaloosa sees snow maybe every 3yrs. Usually gone by noon! I plan to sleep in and avoid the idiots.

Troy, that’s just the daily demolition derby on I-20! Slick tires, and wore out brakes will do that! It is Alabama, after all!

Roads with nothing are actually the easier to drive on, most time they don't plow when they should and make it much worse.

Ya there was a lot of wrecks I've seen on i-59/i-20 when I was there, remember when the truck dropped I think was steel spools and it fell through the one bridge. I had a nice older BMW 850 think it was a 95, I used to make the trip from Birmingham to my sister's pretty quick some days. Perks from working at a high end car dealer lol.
 
Tennessee and kentucky weather were drunk too. 79 on Thursday, raining Friday with periods of snow mixed in. 65 and really pretty Saturday for my middle daughters birthday party. She ran 2 black snakes up under the sidewalk and I ended up having to wait around and employ the shovel. The critters don’t know if it’s spring, winter, or summer, but it sure isn’t fall. Highlight of the birthday was chasing her friends with this little guy… 193953C5-069B-493E-B221-610CB069229E.jpeg
