north, everyone expects snow and ice every winter. Budgets are in place, public and private people are ready with salt, sand, snow tires, chains, etc.

I live in the Northeast. I was in South Carolina one year when the sidewalks got a little slick. Regular TV programming was pre-empted. Trash pick up was thanked for risking lives to collect trash, etc. The bulletins and drama were making me laugh until my eyes teared.

But Obama is being cute. Snow in D.C. is more comparable to what would happen if it snowed in Hawaii than it is to when it snows in Chicago.
