I’ve experienced it. Loved it. Good infrastructure also helps, we have communal services that clear the roads and bicycle paths and salt it. For walking I just use boots with good profile; if there’s ice, I use the ones with spikes.
Eh, power plant operator here, no matter how bad the blizzard is I have to drive through it and get to work. Then clear and shovel stuff at work before going home to do more of the same after a 12 hour shift. I get that I chose this but it really takes the fun out of it.
Ah yeah that sucks. I’m an industrial engineer and routinely days of heavy snow have been “show up to work an hour or two late because of the snow, get sent home with pay after an hour because nobody showed up and the power is about to go out”
I humbly invite you to come experience my driveway, sidewalk and walk way as well as the part of the street the plows won’t touch for some fucking reason.
Disagree, heavy snow as an adult is still awesome. I almost never experience it anymore…
And that is why you think it is awesome.

Same for me here. I work from home these days, so for me it’s just a treat.

When’s the meet up? I’ll bring cocoa and rum
The mountains call to me when it snows
