It is Thanksgiving week, and I was running in my shorts and t-shirt.  If I was still in the midwest, I would be prepared for hitting the slope instead of outdoor running.
What a crazy world you have down here in deep south!

I want it to snow so the Conservinator can teach me how to ski. I live in WISCONSIN, it shouldn't be a challenge to get snow.

I'm a little scared. I'll be driving down to GA on Dec. 16th and then driving back up on Jan. 3. I do have snow tires (that EAT my gasoline!) but no chains. I hope there's no blizzard or anything crazy when I'm trying to drive back.

I've been driving in snow for six years now, on a "I live in Wisconsin and pretty much do it daily for 3-4 months" basis. I have never ever used chains, and have never ever seen anyone use them. I don't think they're necessary. I don't even have snow tires.

For some reason even tho it gets to be freezing temperatures it doesn't snow in Tallahassee. Once every few years we get a couple snowflakes and that's it.
Now this summer in Moscow there were snowflakes on May 15th. I can't imagine what kind of winters they have up there.

ONLY time I have ever used chains was driving at Paradise Pass on Mt. Rainier Washington DURING a extremely heavy snow storm. Mind you at the time Paradise had about 96 inches of snow on the ground!!! (yes you read that right....and yes plows had highways cleared...sort of)

I know this doesn't mean much but I drive a new beetle and I never use snow tires or chains and I've been ok. The farthest north I've been in my car is Indianapolis, but we get dumped on there at times and I haven't had problems.
