Well, since you ask:

Here in Lincoln, Nebraska, we're having our third major snowfall in under
two weeks (major snow here is over 6"). The thing is that they really don't
know how to deal with snow or don't have enough plows or something. So it's
just building up, developing ruts, etc., especially here on the poor side of
town, which for some reason makes the streets around here less of a
priority. And even downtown, they have the brilliant technique of plowing
the snow into the middle of one-way streets, which is fine as long as you
don't want to turn the other direction. How I miss Minneapolis, where even
the out-of-the-way streets get cleared in reasonable time.

I wish my Civic had a little better clearance. I love how it drives on snow
and ice, but with a foot of snow in the alley we've had a little trouble
getting out, but I'm not going to put it in the street and wait for someone
to run into it.

In short, the winter wonderland is great as long as you don't have to go
anywhere...
