    Also looks like they got a little more than two inches. Again though it was 2 motherfucking inches and they abandoned their cars on the Interstate en masse? Last storm to do that in the Midwest was the Groundhog Day Blizzard of 2011 which dropped 20" in 12 hours across Chicagoland, while delivering blizzard conditions. I'm not saying we do not have a ton of shitty drivers up here, in fact we have pileups all the time. However we do not abandon our damn cars like it's 1978

    If you moved a mile in ten hours, not because of the road conditions per se, but because that 0.1 MPH is the speed traffic is allowing you, you wouldn't consider bailing? Why not?

    There were a lot of people who ran out of gas too.

    When I lived in Maryland I remember twice a storm resulting in people abandoning their cars. It wasn't because of volume clogging the roads like in Atlanta, that I can remember. People just seemed to get to a point whereby they weren't comfortable navigating in the slippery conditions. It was crazy.

    With only an inch or two I'd drive through the grass. :)

    Got picked up by a snowmobile in the mid 90's during a snow storm. It was the night of the very first bcs championship and was trying to get home made it about 5 miles from home. Ditched it..called AAA and they said the contry was basically closed and asked how much gas I had..said it was about full and had blankets and such as they said it may be morning before anyone gets to me.

    Called a buddy and he picked me up on snowmobile. That storm was the worst I actually remember going through. Semi's on I75 were basically stopped on the side of the road everywhere...was fucking terrible.

    If I was in in atlanta and close enough...I woulda maybe walked too.
