I saw people texting while driving today; another sign this wasn't a "massive blizzard". Someone posted the criteria for a blizzard - heavy/blowing snow, high winds, reduced visibilities for a prolonged period. The NWS never issued any blizzard warning for this area.

I'm with Bailey on this. Your complaints of commuting in this snow are for areas I hardly call "metro" Detroit. Move. I'm on the eastside. I drive I friggin Fiat and I was able to back out of my unshoveled driveway and drive to a restaurant, the bank, and several stores today with no problems, and all were open- another sign this wasn't a massive blizzard. Don't fall for the hype.
