Yeah, even when I lived in the DC area, people were more used to snow than here. We've had some doozie snows here though. It was 2000, I think, when I awoke to 20", and it was so cold that it didn't start to melt for a week. Our power was off for three days. All the houses around here were using wells, and I was the only one with a generator going, so the neighbors were bringing water containers over and filling them. Two neighbors pump their sewage uphill to their septic tanks, so they had a mess.
