I went to Salisbury U (on MD's eastern shore) and the few times it snowed there it was like the down was afraid the world was coming to an end or something. I think they had maybe 2 plows for the whole city, so they roads stayed a mess for at least a day or two.
The worst part was our campus's grounds crew because they would try to plow throughout the storms, so there was usually ice everywhere. The campus itself is basically as flat as a football field and the ground doesn't drain well, so it was bad enough without them smoothing the ice out like a hockey rink (too many sports analogies).
Now that I'm back in MoCo I feel like they run a pretty tight ship when it snows, even though they're not all that great.
