If we did regularly get heavy snow, though, I imagine we would be better prepared. It's because Monday's dump was a one-off, that it threw everything out of whack.
It wasn't a "one off", though, that will never happen again. It is being called a "once in 20 years" event, but that is still something that municipalities should be planning for. Not by buying extra equipment that will be unused, but certainly with a different playbook of alternate procedures so things like dumping too much snow on the tracks don't happen.
