Haha, so true, I used to live in Charlotte for a little bit when I was in highschool. I lived right across the street from Providence High in an apartment complex. They would get 2 inches of snow and flip out and close down everything. I moved back to MA because I didn't like it too much down there and I pretty much grew up in MA.
Here is some light snowfall for us
