  1. this ain't nothing new. should have lived in st. louis in the 1970's. snowfall of anywhere from 6 to 12 inches was routine. at the time few people had front wheel drive, much less all wheel or four wheel drive cars.
    we did have "snow" tires and heavy sedans. of course, you can always stay home and off the roads too. it is winter and it's supposed to snow.

  2. Every storm is the "big one". Trying to make it sound like it totally unprecedented and has never happened before in history. Extreme hyperbole. This is fearmongering. It's nothing to take lightly, but snowstorms happen every year during the winter. Which storm these days is not the "big one"??????

  3. Missouri doesn’t “prepare” for storms. Modot will waste 100% of its time only doing the 4 major highways in the state till it stops snowing then they will do the other 99% in f blacktops. Dead serious too. Started snowing 8 pm Saturday and I won’t see a plow pass my house till 8 am Tuesday.

  4. They always seems to be plenty of fools that think (?) they need to be somewhere else during these storms ! There will be plenty of STRANDED motorist ! You can bet on that ! Just stay home unless it's truly an emergency !

  5. Missouri drivers are preparing to buy a new car tomorrow while the officials are preparing to buy a new mansion tomorrow because they haven't been on the road for the last almost 3 years they're not trying to help the people of the Midwest

  6. Why are you asking someone that's not even driving on the road with the road conditions are Like she knows she's been sitting inside of her house the whole day coordinating the absolute worst coordination I've ever seen

  7. This lady is absolutely lying right now I live here in the Odessa area actually I live 50 miles away from KC where the salt trucks literally start and stop at and I've never seen roads worse than this right now they were worse than last year where the salt trucks start and stop at… Mind you the salt trucks didn't even come out last year

  8. The worst i can remember in the last 20 years was 6 foot in 36 hours, or going back further the blizzard of 1977 i live on tughill in NY we didnt see the plow for weeks and the snow totals were over 12 foot

  9. Well this is a test for drivers, I have noticed over the years drivers have forgotten physics in bad weather. Drive like maniacs. Slow down people drive like it’s dangerous, because it is.
