Mike,
I don't think you'll have to worry about the next one. I've heard the predictions are that it's nowhere near the ones we've already seen.

We just had 12.5 inches of snow in DALLAS!
The ALL TIME recorded record for snow at any time was 7.8 inches, but it almost never snows here.
('Global Warming?')

We had little snow, but in grand southern tradition, it promptly melted and then froze into sheets overnight. Side roads are deadly right now.
60 miles of interstate just now, but only 1 fresh wreck, 5 abandoned vehicles, and about a dozen sets of overnight spinout tire tracks off the road.
Didn't want to stay at work, since they weren't offering any more OT today...

What kind of gets me is the now-it-alls in the North who gloat all over those of us south of the Mason Dixon Line when we get severe winter storms. Other than the fact that buying snow removal equipment for rare storms makes no financial sense, OK, here goes. The 10 heaviest snow accumulations in Baltimore exceed the same ten for Chicago by a long shot. Chicago went nearly 20 yr (1981-2000) without having a snow fall greater than 10 inches. Chicago averages 38 inches snow a year (Baltimore is at 80 inches so far). Incidentally this figure (80 inches) equals the all time record for Chicago. Not saying that our winters are more severe than those in Chicago, just pointing out our snow storms this year are nothing to joke about.

Got about 7 inches here in central SC. Made it the 5th largest accumulation recorded. Right now there is only some left in the shady spots. Earlier today pulled the kids around on their boogie boards with the lawnmower. 
Even talked the wife into jumping in the jonboat with the kids while I pulled it around the field with the minivan. Lots of fun.
