@GeePawHill Wisdom. I live in Sillycon Valley, as in can walk to where Shockley Laboratories usedtabe. If I woke up to hear that it had snowed, I'd stay home that day. Well, I might walk out to see the runoff in Permanente Creek.
I used to drive in snow in the suburbs of Washington DC. Favorite car for that was a 1965 Cadillac Coupe de Ville. Fill the gas tank to put 26 gallons of weight on the drive axle and remember the state motto, Drive Gently.
