There are things I don't think about because I don't live in such cold places. We shut down completely when it snows, because it's never just snow, but sleet and ice with a pretty snow layer covering it all up, and it only lasts 24-48 hours. Shouldn't firefighters have GPS coordinates of fire hydrants in a computer on their trucks by now? Although I can see issues with a power to a server hosting the data being down, or satellite signals not being able to penetrate through the storms.
Either way, I really like the idea of finding ways to involve the community, and that makes these guys modern super heroes in my eyes.
