snow hysteria
by Alpine McGregor on Dec 21, 2008 04:17:47
When the
populace's fear of a
snowstorm creates traffic jams and general panic
way before any flakes even fall. Usually turns out to be a totally disproportionate response to a minor snowstorm.
Example:
Everyone is
fleeing the office thanks to snow hysteria...but it isn't supposed to start
snowing until 9
PM.
