All I can say is try biking in that kind of weather... x10 (including ice... it's not for the faint of heart, I must admit)

Anyways, interesting map I found on facebook, posted by forum member the506:

I'm assuming that's the map of how much snow it takes to cancel school.  It does not factor in wind or cold temperatures.

Yes, that's it. I hadn't realized the map wasn't labelled.

There's a world of difference between 2 inches of a snow and a category 1 hurricane for chrissake.

I'm sure most Canadians and Northerners would say a category 1 hurricane is a much bigger deal than a surprise snowstorm.  And most Southerners would find the snowstorm more daunting than a weak hurricane.


Really? So cat 1 hurricanes usually result in 0 death toll and minimal property damage in the south? Give me a break.

Also, we get at least 2 inche snow falls regularly throughout the winter (maybe 3-5 times a month?). I don't think you get hit by hurricanes that often. I think if you did, Mississippi would be even more of an unliveable hell hole than it currently is. Wink
