This might be a hot take, this might be one of the warmest takes ever, I hated when northerners were shitting on Texas for “overreacting” to Texas shutting down over “a bit of snow” People died, may people died, this isn’t the same as (1)

“You can’t handle a little heat” or being cold when we visit the north, that you can make fun of us for People died, many people died, because our state isn’t ready to handle snow, please understand and respect that we’re trying to avoid death

Yankees don’t understand the money in the south go towards floods, hurricanes, and tornado response. Enough snow to cause serious damage only happens once a decade, and we have some capabilities to handle it, and plan ahead as soon as we know, but it’s not financially reasonable to keep fleets of snowplows and warehouses full of road salt on standby to use once a decade

Remember when sandy hit the north east? They retired the name, even though it hit the south harder and it wasn’t even the worst hurricane of the season for us. We didn’t bully the north for not being able to handle a little hurricane did we? No, we sent our experienced crews to help with recovery response
