To be fair I don't think anyone laughs at the UK for this sort of storm. Half an inch and London shuts down and goes into panic mode is what gets laughed at!! I lived in Chicago for 12 years, winters there are brutal and you can get 8" of snow overnight and the roads are clear in the morning!!! They are ready for it, they have the equipment to deal with it and they allocate the funds to make sure it get done, but they have to do that as snow is a given there, its not in the UK on this scale. The other advantage Chicago has is it is completely flat, no hills at all but where there are some slight hills, when it snows the cars get stuck just like you see in the UK. They just clear it quicker off the roads but rush hour snow causes chaos wherever you might live.
