The only weather station in the continental US that's never reported either snow or ice is Key West, Fla.

All over this state, if it snows you are not going anywhere so amount really doesn't matter. They do not have snow plows here and few trucks to lay sand; yes I said sand but it's actually got a small amount of salt in it but it doesn't clear the roads as well as they would be up north.

Warmest should almost always be further south. Our lows the last few weeks have been in the 30's with an occasional 20's thrown in, mostly.

If and when it snows here, except for the foothills (of the BlueRidge Mtns), it'll be gone by lunchtime; seriously, by the next day. Again, except for the foothills, we may get this type snowfall (1") once every two or three years.

I'll take 5 or 6 feet of snow (vs the 5" that's predicted) tonight before putting up with the harlequin romance hype that covers the urban misery that defines the Charleston, SC area.

Different strokes for different folks, as Sly once sang.

Actually, we do have snow plows here in Columbia although it is very rare that they get used. There is nowhere in South Carolina that gets enough snow that it should be overwhelming to anyone, although the further northwest you go in the state, the more snow you will see, on average.
