Locogringo, this isn't the first time Virginia has seen a major snowstorm.

When I was living in Maryland just minutes away from Virginia, I've been through a few, including the great blizzard of 1996. That storm dumped three feet of snow in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area. I remember driving through it on my way up to Vermont before getting stranded in New Jersey because of road closures. Fortunately I was able to stay at a friend's house for a couple of nights.

Based on news reports, it seems that only a foot of snow fell in Virginia, yet for some reason thousands of drivers got stranded on I-95. Why is that? Why weren't they directed off the highways in advance of the snowstorm? Why couldn't they be directed toward shelter or at least turned around so that they wouldn't have to sleep in their cars in frigid temperatures?

Yeah, this is definitely the governor's responsibility. Maybe that lame dick, Ralph Northam, just doesn't give a f--- anymore.
