It is comically stupid that 2 inches of snow with some ice could turn an entire state / region into a post apocalyptic wasteland for 3 days. Its a daily occurrence up here.

I couldn't have said this better myself. I can't believe someone would expect a city to warn everyone to stay home because of 2" of snow. Chicago puts plows on garbage trucks as well. With climate changes those cities that aren't used to snow better start getting used to it.
