ICE storms (6 inches one time) that pretty well shut down SW Missouri down totally (they don't even have snow plows I think (just kidding)).

And ICE, both minor and major can be big issues too. You're right, the Lake Effect snows off the Great Lakes can be 'lots of fun' I can imagine (and the wind from what I've heard too). I've heard of literally feet/yards of snow. Wow.

Good for you (I hope it's planned) that you live in Calif., away from the snows/wind/ice...I still live in MO, but the major snows don't seem to hit as much as in prior years but the little icing on the roads still does hit sometimes but I just stay at home/don't go out/etc. and it'll hopefully melt off / go away pretty quickly, but sometimes it doesn't go away so quickly.
