In a way, it is so calm and beautiful. I remember walking home from school in a couple heavy snow storms. The sound of the snow falling was so peaceful.

[@john242ti]

So, did Jonathan's hand get frozen from doing the video footage out the window? Last time I was there, definitely a lot less snow on the ground (about 35 years and two weeks ago).

[@g.e.5723]

Decades ago, growing up in the St. Louis area, knee-deep snow would occur. Just s l o w down, jobs knew that people would likely be late to work. No big deal. Compare that to current living in Atlanta. If the forecast calls for a "dusting" of snow, schools announce closing, TV News cameras are outside of Home Depot saying "snow shovels are selling out" etc. I guess it's just what one is used to.

[@TreyveonMoses-m6j]

​@@danb7601It's nothing like that. Driving in snow isn't dangerous at all it's actually black ice that kills people mostly and secondly not driving for the conditions. If we are measuring danger a significantly amount of people die driving in perfect conditions or rainy conditions in maybe a single region per year than this entire country per year. So the truth is driving recklessly is dangerous. Snow has nothing to do with it.

It took us 9 hours drove all the way north to red bluff in a rx350 with all season tires. Big relief when we got out of the mountains suddenly the roads were wet and started to rain. I was arrived at the gate just in time as they were boarding the last zone. What a day 😂😂….

Growing up I used to live in Virginia, and we moved to Texas in '76 so it's been a really long time since I've seen "Real Snow". (more than an inch or two) I totally forgot just how beautiful snow is. As a kid I could play in that white powder all day long and would never realize how cold it was. Back then I was only like 5-6yrs old and simply getting out of the house was a chore. Most of the time we'd have to climb out the second floor window. Everything was so white you could easily see rabits, deer and all kinds of animals. Our closest neighbor was 10miles away and it was the dream.
