ah, the South

[timepiece]

I'm reading the local news from my hometown paper and dying:

"Traffic came to a standstill and many businesses sent workers home early Wednesday because of a fast-moving low-pressure system that left icy conditions and as much as an inch of snow across Hampton Roads."

Rich's reaction: "Holy shit! A whole inch! Wow!" (with, of course, heavy sarcasm)

I can't stop giggling. They make it sound apocalyptic.
