And people here seem to think that Memphis is downright tropical, but it gets cold down there, especially with the humidity. We would get occasional snow and sleet like I've never seen anywhere else. It would paralyze the city. Nasty stuff. So I know what you mean. Truth is, half an inch of snow down in your neck of the woods is more trouble than half a foot up here.
