Georgia Is Closed Because Snow is Falling, People Don’t Know How to Drive, and Everybody Tries to Go Home at the Same Time
At 11:30 am yesterday morning, my wife and I were in a whole foods type of store in Alpharetta, GA. Snow was coming down, but neither of us thought much of it except that it was pretty. Driving in it had not been a big deal and since I spent many years in New York State, I was accustomed to this type of weather. I knew what to do and what not to do. Having an all-wheel drive vehicle that could switch to 4-wheel drive also helped. However, even with that, a person needs to know how to drive in snow and what NOT to do when you hit what is known as “black ice” (named because you really can’t see it against the black asphalt).
