My daughter, who lives now near Dallas,
She said: This is NOT a MAJOR SNOW storm... This is dusting...
She is amazed at how poorly the roads are after the storm. Most likely due to lack of proper equipment (and amount of equipment).
Usually within 8 hours after the snow stops, all of the paved roads here in NH are mostly clear.
She did however, get supplies 2 days before and also filled up the bathtub with water (give you 30 gallons or so for flushing during an outage). She lived up here and remembers being without power for up to a week due to ice storms or blizzards.
Luckily, she only lost power once for a few hours for each of the last 2 days.
