What I'm right about is that the 1 to two inch snows don't have the type of effect on Dallas that 20 inch snows have on NYC. If they did (and they happened every few years), than Dallas should plan its budget to deal with them. Since they don't, and since they usually melt away pretty quickly, Dallas reasonably doesn't.

As for New york, a 20 inch snow is a severe enough problem for the city that they should be prepared to deal with it if it happens every six years or so, particularly since that will also help them deal with a 10 to 15 inch snow storm (or series of snow storms adding up to that much before much of it can be cleared) which happens more often.
