I probably would have checked the internet, but I never listen to radio and rarely to TV, so I understand how some likely missed the warnings.
However, the media has been over-hyping nearly every hurricane, thunderstorm, and heat wave to where it's like crying wolf, and people start tuning them out.
Having grown up in the mountains of Colorado, I'm well aware of what can happen when you're stranded in a car--and my heart goes out to each and every one of them.

We missed the snow in my area but it got frigid very quickly. 60 on Sunday. 28 on Monday.
Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

I wonder how many snowplow drivers stayed at home due to vaccine mandates.

We learned real quick when we moved into this area 15 years ago to check the road conditions before you go anywhere.
Prior to moving here I had never paid much attention to road and traffic conditions either.
It's not the traffic alone, it's the volume of traffic in and around DC.
And the weather has a large impact on all those drivers so one has to pay attention.
I grew up in Michigan and have seen many many snow storms.
The drivers in this area are the worst I've ever seen when driving in the snow.
Driving in a snow storm with penny loafers and a suit coat?
Or a fancy dress and high heels?
People have no idea how to prepare for winter driving let alone drive into a snow storm.
