Monster snow and ice storms usually happen once or twice a year in northern Virginia.  Since we are located near Washington, DC in the mid Atlantic there are many folks new to the areas weather as almost north and not quite south.

You really do not want to be on our roads looking for the solution to a winter emergency during a storm.  If you are new to winters try testing your breaks and turning in an empty parking lot on the first snow/ice storm.  Learning how long it takes to stop and how much to turn without a slide is invaluable if caught out in a sudden storm.
