How does your community keep going? I mean, can you go to the grocery store? Are the clerks there to check you out? And is an $18/hour job really worth risking life and limb to get to? I'm sure emergency personnel have to be where they have to be, but the less critical jobs -- I have to think the malls, libraries, non-critical medical centers/doctors' offices, movie theaters, restaurants, and so on, are all shut down for the duration, aren't they?

Here things pretty much stay open (other than the schools, of course) during our usual snow storms...now if we get three feet at once, it's a little different. The YMCA where I work part-time almost never closes due to weather, which means I've been getting to drive in there in the snow at 5am (or home later in the morning, with all the morons on the road and pedestrians who walk in the street because the sidewalks aren't cleared, and walk on the wrong side) quite often this year. I enjoy the snow in general, but digging out cars and getting stuck at the bottom of the driveway is getting annoying.
