I hate driving my just washed Truck through the over satured with Salt slushy snow back streets to get it in the garage realizing I just wasted 15 bucks to make it look like it did when I left.😤Home Theater

Why is it that every time it snows on the east coast, it makes national news? Having spent most of my life in Montana, eastern Washington and Utah, it’s kind of a non-issue when it snows - you get up early, shovel and go to work. However, every time it snows out East, it’s the end of the world…? I would understand if we were talking Florida or Arizona, but in the northeast I’d think they would be used to snow….Forget “Build Back Better” - Just put it back the way you found it… ~ Anonymous

It snows quite often here. This will be the 4th "snow event" as they have taken to calling them lately, with measurable accumulation. I think the 8th overall since Winter officially started.
The difference is, and this is a friend from Minnesota telling me this, they get small storms dumping a few inches at a time but, the snow doesn't go away there until spring. So 3 or 4 snow falls with 3-4 inches adds up to a foot and a half but it came in small increments. It just doesn't go away between storms.
But here, when it snows like this, it's essentially a tropical storm that's getting pushed up the coast by a cold front hovering over a place like Montana or Minnesota which is making it snow, not rain. So a typical tropical storm here will dump 2-3 inches of water on us in one shot. The average conversion is 8-10 inches of snow per every inch of rain. So a storm that would normally dump 2.5-3 inches of rain turns into a storm that buries the Northeast in 20-30 inches of snow overnight. That's not something you can easily shovel out of and go to work in the morning. Granted, we get the majority of the area back up and running within 24 hours after the snow stops and that's an impressive feat for how monumental of a task it is but it's still debilitating and affects major economic areas of the country.
That said, though, I'm with you on why is it always a "SNOWPOCALYPSE" when it's typical Northeast winter weather here. It can be really dangerous but with how fast everything moves here on any given day, take some pleasure in the fact that getting buried under a couple feet of idiot dust forces it to slow down for a bit.Expert Moron Extraordinaire

Would be if the East Coasters
weren't prone to Woositis.

Here, not to beat a dead horse or anything but I just saw this article pop up on Facebook about why the storms in the Northeast get to be so news-worthy:

Currently, a gale warning was just issued for my area with potential gusts at the coast with hurricane force winds. Looks like the worst of the winds are going to be hitting Rhode Island and Massachusetts.Expert Moron Extraordinaire
