When you live on the east coast and midwest, you should be expecting snow, especially in January. Residents from New York to Chicago know good and well that snow is bound to come. But when it keeps coming, there might be a problem.

“It kept snowing, and snowing, and snowing, dropping a whopping two feet of snow on the city and other surrounding towns, making travel near impossible, with people being trapped in schools, offices and homes,” wrote Jennifer Corter for Phactual. “A total of 76 people died as a result of the storm, 26 of them in Chicago alone.”
