What bugs me about this is that it's an armchair analysis from someone 11°+ north in latitude (Lake Placid is a five hour drive north of New York City. Additionally, I looked up the historic weather data. In a span of 3 weeks there was a temperature swing of over 25°C in Atlanta. Finally, the author completely and disingenuously ignores that the US south does not have snow removal equipment to the same degree. In emergencies that equipment has to get trucked down... Assuming it's not needed in the localities lending it.
