Re: Question for all the Minneapolis Players...
the first snowfall or two it almost doubles/triples the commute - after that it lightens up a bit to normal, and if they're smart, and they have any doubt (like Coleman did in St. Paul) - you plow even in doubt.
People get used to it, and yah, we have one hell of a plow system, but the cutbacks last yr. sorta took it down a notch in efficency. budgets and all - but up here, a failure to invest in the roads would result in so much lost productivity it's not funny.

I tell ya, being only 10 min. from work and working from pm - 7am really is a boon - I can't imagine paying less for an apt. but adding 30 min. to my drive - but that's just me.
BTW, salt will kill your car...any classic autos you have...leave off the road in winter -
yes...I need vegas, and when I go, I'll take our slowly expanding light rail line to the airport....very important. - no parking fees.
