Don't start a-laughing too quick.
Yes, these southroners can be fun to watch in a snow storm, but the weather down here plays tricks and sometimes will warm up enough to melt then snow some more, so you end up with what looks like snow, but really is an ice sheet with snow on it. At that point, it ain't like driving in snow. 4WD, FWD, RWD, it don't much matter if you don't have studs or chains.
Over here in the Dallas area, we are more likely to have an ice storm than a snow storm. Fun stuff, that. I have more time driving on ice down here than driving on snow.
