Surviving Snow/Ice like a true Southerner


I know some of you are from the North where snow and ice are completely normal. But down here in Mississippi... well... we don't do snow well. If you haven't already purchased bread and milk you're probably out of luck, but if you're from the South, you already know bread and milk seem to be the two things everyone panic buys at the mention of snow or ice.

If this is your first Southern snow experience, It's possible you may witness a man in full camo riding a recliner being pulled behind a truck by a ski rope. Do not be alarmed. 

Ice storms and snow days sound fun until the power goes out, the roads freeze, and you realize you’re down to one packet of ramen and a half-charged phone.
