Something I wonder about since moving back to Ohio.   Why does snow seem like such a surprise every year to the schools and the snow plows?   They know it’s coming, but then re-act with a “wow, where did this come from?” attitude.   Maybe it’s just me, but I remember a lot more snow falling here wh...
