     We haven't had any abandoned vehicles, rolling blackouts or lack of   
   water.  At least in the urban areas.  And since I live and work in an urban   
   environment I've been untouched by that.

     Drivers here go crazy when it snows.   
     I am reminded of an old Far Side cartoon.  You have read this before but   
   its for the newbies.   
     Two panels.   
     First panel is a typical day on the highway with cars going about their   
   business.   
     Second panel, "the first snow flake of the season" and there is one   
   solitary snowflake falling and cars are running into each other, driving off   
   the   
   highway, etc.
