I would say the school closure map is a little off. The only way 6" is going to close our school is if there is some serious cold and drifting. We got 10.5" last night and they haven't closed any of the schools in the county. We are forecasted to get another 5-8 Tuesday night.

When we lived in Va. Beach they got under two inches and shut down the city. The south doesn't prepare for the weather that they rarely get. If they did tax payers would be po'd because it would be a waste of money. I doubt there are very many plow blades in the Atlanta area. I think they have the worlds largest stockpile of orange barrels (they store them on the highways there just to piss me off cause I never see any road work going on just barrels) but no snow plow equipment.

I find it amusing in general, it is supposedly based on some sort of research, but I can't say as we typically see them wait until we have over 2 foot of snow to issue closures around here either.
