Some good comments and insight from other northerners living in NC.
So, this is how Raleigh, NC handles 2.5" of snow : pics |
See even in in va we don't have that situation really. It's called pretreating and just about everyone north of NC does it because we have to. It keeps that hill from becoming a luge track. NC isn't prepared for such activities since they need it so infrequently.
