"a heavy drizzle".

You Southlanders. You reserve the term "weather" for the anomalies. Like clouds.

We haven't had a heavy snow storm in three years, and the weather man was predicting 1 to 2 inches, and it started after most people were already at work, so there were a lot of people caught unawares. We had ten or twelve inches out here. The bad thing was all the junky piece of sh@t cars that couldn't handle it and were left along the side of the road. On my way to the dentist this morning I saw four or five muscle cars had slid off the side of the road along a hill, they couldn't make it uphill, the hill hadn't been salted and they were driving rear-wheel drive cars.

I love my Rover! It cost a fortune, and it gets terrible mileage, but it just laughs at snow and ice, uphill and down. It was a diff lock day, that's for sure.
