Jeff, don't laugh too hard, I was in TN a week or so ago and the stores were sold out of staples like bread, milk and eggs. Not sure about the ammo though...
When areas that aren't used to getting snow get it, they are not prepared like we are. They don't have the equipment or supplies (salt) to deal with it. Also, it's much worse in areas that have mountains. Also, the people who have lived there their entire lives just don't have the experience driving in it, and that brings on a completely different problem in itself. Although, we have a few of those around here too

You didn't watch the video I put up in Youtube. I got about a foot in my neighborhood by the time the snow stopped falling. When I got home from work later that day, my HHR became a snow plow. Down here, we don't have any form of snow removal equipment, so things can get ugly real fast.
