Why does snow close the South?

Because DOTD is not prepared for snow or ice covered roads.

because the department of transportation's don't have it in the budget to deal with frozen roads. nor do the citizens have the vehicles to deal with it. pretty simple.

Because why would all of these cities and states invest in that expensive equipment and what not when this shite happens once like every 5-10 years. C'mon man.

It's not a blizzard. We shut things down the day before for the threat of snow. The threat!

Because when it snows 5 times in a decade, you don't have the infrastructure in place to handle even a little bit of precipitation.

We don't have the equipment and preparation to deal with it. It doesn't freeze often enough to have they equipment. It is really genuinely unsafe.

Really?

The south isn’t equipped for this type of weather...when was the last time it iced/snowed over twice in the same year?


The same can be said for rain storms in the north and northeast. Give LA 6 inches of rain and you’ll have to mindful of the conditions but not much shuts down.
That happens elsewhere and you are talking about catastrophic flooding.

Twice a year? In South Louisiana? Bull shite.

I've seen it snow in South LA maybe 5 times in my life, and two of those happened this year.
