Eh. Depends on what part of the country. I know here in TN (south eastern US) that certainly applies. We don’t get a lot of snow. But, I know in The NE, it doesn’t apply. People are ready for it and know what to do. I imagine other parts of the north are like that too.
I grew up in MA and I remember waiting at the bus stop in snow up to the top of my boots in negative temps. It was just normal. The buses ran, things didn’t close down until it was physically impossible to pass.
Then I moved to FL. And we didn’t get snow, but hurricanes and tropical storms. I remember driving in a tropical storm and thinking it was a lot like driving in a snow storm. When there is a couple inches of standing water on on the sun baked roads, it feels a lot like driving on ice.
