The Lower Mainland of British Columbia rarely gets snow at sea level usually we have a pineapple express for Christmas.
Having said that, the least storm stops the city. This last storm they effectively shut down the buses when we got about 4 inches. The city is all hills and shoreline, we don't own snow specific equipment, the best they can do is move it around and wait for rain, which is happening now.
Snow/ice shuts down Austin TX for the same reasons but, it very rare except for ice on elevated roadways about 2 or 3 times per winter. Austin proper has never had a white Christmas.
Cedar Park [just north of Austin] has the Dallas Stars farm team.
