> snows in Atlanta and everyone slows down, but it has snowed it Pittsburgh

every year since the city was a tiny fort, and it always seems to come as
a surprise to the drivers.

Maybe Pittsburgh has not enough snow removing tractors?

Around Apr 1 this year we had ~30cm of snow in Moscow for the single afternoon. The city was not paralyzed at all (though the federal route of Moscow <-> SPb was stalled for half of the day after this, you needed like 5 hours to go out of the city for 80km using this route).

3" (8cm) of snowfall; in Minnesota, they don’t worry about the schools
until the snow hits about three feet (1 meter).

Probably this is a sign of more serious approach to road snow removal equipment in Minnesota.

melt the snow, grab the street, thrust the car about a foot (30cm) forward
while throwing up the smoke of burning rubber, repeat indefinitely.

Amazing. Sometimes you can avoid this using inertia - just go-go-go without any attempts to stop, using wheels as the steamship’s paddle wheels. Sometimes you really manage to do this. Just do not stop.

of tubeless tires, he used tubed tires

Yes, good idea for such adventures.

You can, but it is very painful. See the above comment about my brother
and his Jeep.

He is using tubed tires? yes, this can be dismounted manually. Even by a single person if he/she is experienced.
