I live in DFW. Yes, Texans can get this dumb about snow even though we do get at least a bit of the white stuff every year. And when it ices over everyone forgets how to drive.
When Atlanta, GA, got the Thrashers hockey franchise, there were billboards inviting everyone to “Come see the only people in Atlanta who can DRIVE ON ICE!” (Snow is rare down here, so we mostly expect paralysis.)
Yeah, this is my exact experience with Texans and snow, ha.
Happens here in Georgia too.
Honestly, Doris! It can’t be as cold as lying in the bottom of a lake in a bikini in Winter, can it?
(And yes, "rush to the store and stock up" is a fine old Southern tradition every time Mother Nature says "Boo." LOL)
I live in Louisiana. Three inches would be death to us.
Texan & snow ?
I, too, have never had the joy of experiencing snow…
At best, it was a very light layer of frost on the grass and breaking a layer of ice on the dog’s water bowl… but that’s it.
From my recollection Doris shouldn’t really be suffering becuase of the cold, have the properties of the bodysuit changed somehow?

Three inches? TRY TWO FEET!
Two feets? Try 8 feet! (Québecker here)
Used to live in Alaska, currently live in Colorado. Three inches is a warm day.

i can say with honest certainty we don’t forget how to drive when it ices over cause we didn’t know how to drive to begin with.
Three inches is nothing, us Montanans get snow that high in the Summer
Weird solidarity between Texas and the UK.
