Americans can't handle a little bit of snow

>everywhere in America is the same
Remember that one time the LA news media was going on about how freezing it was when it was like 63F/17C?
>>53983866

Who /towndoesn'tusesalt/ here?
>>53984185
How do you survive?
>>53984185
One town I lived in used a finer grain of sand or something. Another used rocks and salt so everyone's wind shields get fucked each winter.
Commercial and private companies use whatever is cheap.
>>53983065
USA climates are more varied than Canada.
States that get a lot of snow are used to it, while states that aren't accustomed to snow freak out.
>>53983323
It's great and shit at the same time
>>53983065
Americans can't handle hurricanes either.
>>53984185
Businesses here throw a metric fuckton of salt outside of their buildings to avoid getting sued by people who might slip.
>>53984219
They use gravel for the pavement
and people have studded tires
>>53984594
What do you do in the summer?

Have teenagers sweep the gravel up for $3 an hour
put on normal tires.
I had 35" studded tires in winter on my vitara and 33" normal tires for summer

It's only courteous since most of the world other than us uses it. It's not like it takes more than 2 seconds to type the conversion into the address bar and get the result back.
>>53984316
Still... 4 dead... WTF?!
>>53984903
they started clapping when the snow plows showed up, but stayed out for too long and died of exposure
>>53984903
>Still... 4 dead... WTF?!
If you never drove in snow before then you dont know how to handle it. This isnt in the North or Northeast US but in the South.
>hear about somebody dying
>remember when I was driving on the freeway with ~10 feet of visibility and some douchebag passed me going something like 85
>feel smug
>>53985130
>implying the person who died wasn't probably whoever was in the same situation you were except the other person crashed into them
>>53983321
Minnesota is just beside/under Northern Ontario, so Southern Ontario Toronto fags like me are souther than them and it's less serious here for cold weather usually.
>americans drive with summer tyres during winter
>it's like disney on ice if everyone was goofy
>>53983866
>17C

>>53983065
>implying 800+ camadiens don't crash during the first big snowfall
Just stop. We know all about you.
>>53987082
>-17C
>cold
are you memeing me?, that's significant cold for you? that's not even 0F
This amount of snow closed schools county-wide in Tennessee
>>53987986
>that's not even 0F
What the fuck is that silly system even based on
>>53988078
>what is the south
That being said, Tenn should have their shit figured out by now.
>>53987986
>the record cold in reykjavik is -3.5 F (-19.7 C)
lel, that is some ridiculous babby shit
this is my town in new york, which is nothing compared to minnesota or canada
>>53988152
The first mercury thermometer. 0°F was the lowest it could go, so they made that the zero point.
Just moved from New Brunswick, Canada to the US south a couple months ago. Got their first snowfall of the year Wednesday, I saw over 30 cars crashed on the side of the road, it took me 2.5 hours in traffic to make a 30 minute drive, and this transport jacknifed right in front of me.
No wonder southerners lost the war. These incompetent fucks can't do anything right except gain weight.
>>53988211
Reykjavík is about as Icelandic as london is english

They can go drink a latte in yaris
I'll drink my dark coffee in my 44" patrol (if I had one)
I'm only now starting to realize I shitpost about these things
>>53988289
where is this at?
Sauce? These are southern states don't forget. They cancel school for a dusting because they just don't have the means to deal with it as it's uncommon.
>>53988373
Spread some more

literally burger: the metrics
I live in Tennessee. We have maybe one snow a year. We aren't prepared for it because it never happens. Also we don't get a lot of snow but we get a lot of black ice.

>Metric cucks mad that they can't read both
Stay jelly
>>53992111
It's really not that bad. Any accidents usually come from teenagers who are too stupid to drive safe in good weather.
Most of the adult in the area I live are so scared of ice they actually drive super safe.
>>53992219
>I will never live in Tennessee
>>53992315
I live in Knoxville. It's nice, pretty boring though. There's nothing really wrong with the place.

Deer and hog hunting are better out west though. Probably fishing too with the exception of mountain trout.

We use cinders here in Flagstaff
>>53994587
Nothing wrong with that Tbh, but I still wish we had bigger deer and more hogs. Also I'd like to catch an alligator gar without driving 3 hours.

It is a really ingenious system if you actually looked it up. Fahrenheit knew exactly what he was doing. It is a much better system than Celsius
