I think I can count on one hand in my 10+ years living here we have received "significant" snowfall. So anytime we get some, the state is pretty much paralyzed.
Based on the NWS briefing released in the last half hour, I may be in one of the worst possible locations: far enough from the coast for significant icing, but not far enough inland for it to fall as all snow. My locale is firmly in the "1/2 to 3/4 inches of ice on all exposed surfaces" zone of the latest maps. Ugh.
