Our First Snow in Atlanta. IT DOES SNOW HERE!


A very large snowflake on our deck, West on our deck, Bud by our mailbox, Bud with a snow man, and West catching one of the several hundred flakes that fell with his mouth.

Well, we had our first Atlanta snow and we were all very surprised. The forecast called for cold rain mixed with sleet. By 9:00 PM Wednesday, however, we had already exceeded our January monthly average for snow--in only 4 hours!

I must admit I got my boys hopes up about their school closing on Thursday. When we went to bed it was 31 degrees and supposed to drop a few more degrees. Unfortunately, it actually warmed to 33 and melted the streets.

Nevertheless, it is possible that we could quadruple our monthly average with another storm that is supposed to come through tommorrow. Believe it or not, there is a potential for three whole inches!

If that happens, Atlanta will shut down.
