I hail from the stupidest town in the north:

Cold, snow creates chaos
'No one expected it to be this bad.'

It wasn't even a half an inch, you dumbasses! If you'd just shown a little bit of forethought, there wouldn't have been so many problems!

Some highlights from the article:

"Although about only a tenth of an inch of snow dusted the roads, that was all it took for freezing temperatures to do their worst, meteorologists said.

'Snow-covered, slippery roads and accidents everywhere - all over the county,' said dispatcher Lori Taylor of the Ohio State Highway Patrol. 'How many calls do you think we've had today? Hundreds.'

Although many county roads were pre-treated Wednesday, crews had little time to prepare for such a snowfall, said Chris Petrocy, spokesman for the Butler County Engineer's Office."

SUCH a snowfall. A tenth of an inch.

Cincinnati is teh dumb.

It wasn't the snow. It was the damn ice. And Cinci is quite hilly. I don't want to be sliding down a hill in my car, with no way to stop.

Dayton was bad too. I-675 had slow spots near the Indian Ripple Rd. and Col. Glenn Hwy. exits. Even though I left home for work at 8:15, I didn't get in until 10:00.

Believe it or not, these are the times I miss winters in Buffalo.
