Beautiful, even if strange for Atlanta.

I think tomorrow evening thru Monday you should get more over there.

I know N. AL missed yesterday's snow, but expecting this whole area that got snow, and N. AL to get some tomorrow night into Monday morning.

Stay safe, and watch out for the other drivers if you have to drive.

Angie

Snow in Atlanta... - Countryside Families


This is the first time my dogs have seen REAL snow. This was taken just about an hour after the snow started.

Those photos are great. I especially love that bottom one with the deep blue sky and the lacy white tree limbs.

And my son didn't even call to tell me about snow in Atlanta - though he knows he won't get much sympathy from me up here is SD.

Hope you guys all stay safe! And you can laugh at me in the summer when I complain when it gets over 100 and the humidity is over 50%.

Such beautiful pictures.

I love to see animals playing in the snow.

We use to have these white kittens and once when we had a good snow it was so funny to see them outside playing in it. Ever seen little puffs of fluff popping up out of the fluffy white snow. It was so funny.

This much I'll say: It will knock heck out of your local flea population for a while.

With as wet as it's been, I'm not counting on it (though I'm hoping it's true -- we had some super cold days about a month ago). I've had my boy dog for more than 5 years, and this was the first year I had to use flea treatment.

Love the pictures of the dogs enjoying the snow!

So just how far south did the snow go? Hopefully it will mean less insects for you all this year. If only it would get rid of the crock and gators too. They scare me!

I heard on a weather report last night that every state has snow in it except Hawaii. so that means even FL got snow around Pensacola yesterday.
