SOUTHAVEN, Miss. -- As piles of snow continue to line the streets of Southaven, residents are taking matters into their own hands to remove the snow. "This year was pretty good," resident Laura Mason said. "Last year was way worse. We were stuck in for two weeks. This year, we were only stuck for one day. Mason told WREG that snow plows haven't made their way into her Southaven community nearly 24 hours after the snowfall. Now, residents are forced to dig themselves out, which Mason said has become a yearly ritual. "We definitely got snowed in," Mason said. "We all really get together and we clean out the Cove. So, if you see the house behind us, I know my neighbor had four-wheelers. So, every year he gets together and gets the four-wheelers - him and his son. We all clean the snow out to get out the Cove." However, Mason did acknowledge that the city did a good job of keeping the main roads clear. Memphians make the most of winter weather Another resident, Mary Castro, who's lived in Southaven her whole life, agrees.  "I was really surprised. We were just talking about how clear the streets were," Castro said. She said this storm wasn't as bad as last year's. She added that she's confident the city will be prepared for any further weather challenges ahead. "It may freeze. There's always a chance that will happen," Castro said. "I'm sure the city will take the measurements and put out some salt for the roads. I would hope. If not, people may have to stay home. WREG Weather Expert Max Claypool warns that the biggest concern for Mid-South residents is black ice, especially with temperatures dropping tonight.
