Snowstorm. Pfft.
I didn't even button my jacket.
This was the Oliver Willis of "snowstorms".
Mitch, I didn't even know snow came down vertically until I moved south from Grand Forks/Warren.
Raleigh NC had 1" of snow Thursday and the whole area shut down.

3000 students were stranded in classrooms overnight.
Fortunately it fell on a Friday night so the evening commute, while bad, didn't leave the StarTribune another chance to complain that Pawlenty didn't have enough people out shoveling the roads...
Mitch--
I know what would make a man out of Snarky Willis:
Spending a winter in North Dakota.
