lol! Yes, my ex who is from Upstate New York would call us Southerners (I'm in SE Pennsylvania only about 3 hours from NYC) because we couldn't handle 3 feet in one go. And that's true. We had a 3 foot blizzard in '96 that just brought the area to a complete standstill. And to make matters worse, some enterprising sort decided that since we hadn't had much snow in the previous years, that we wouldn't need this year's supply of road salt and he sold it! So we had 3 feet of snow and no way to treat the roads.

Then we walked to school uphill, barefooted everyday in that snow even in the summer!

That's one of those "granny" stories isn't it? Yikes!
