That's what they're like here in Utah. Ironically, Utah prides itself on
having "the greatest snow on earth." That only holds as long as it
doesn't fall, I guess.

A couple of weeks ago, we got about half an inch. That evening, the
newscasts were crammed with LIVE reports of that "latest winter storm"
with frantic reporters standing on snow-dusted sidewalks squawking about
how terrible it all was.
