"Really, though, [the pre-snowfall grocery panic] has nothing to do with the weather: it's a cultural holiday. We buy and prepare traditional foods, have a day or two off, and follow elaborate rituals of celebration and catharsis - the snow isn't really necessary, it's just window dressing." -- melannen, 2010-02-05
