Western Washington is funny. We usually get snow at least once a year, but we are NEVER PREPARED FOR IT. The main streets get salted and the mail trucks get chains put on the tires, I have no idea if other government vehicles do. I know the buses don't. That's it. That's all. It's like we're surprised by it every time. "Snow? This again?! Didn't we go through this last year? I thought you only got it once, like the chicken pox."
