Snow in Dixie
 

It seems like every year we're seeing the growing effects of global warming down here in the Deep South...

I know all of the northern BOTL probably get a chuckle out of the pandemonium that ensues any time we get a quarter inch of snow down here. The are church closings, weather men on the TV... I'm sure there will be a run on milk and bread this morning at the grocery stores.

Here's a shot towards the valley behind my house from my back porch this morning.

The white stuff sucks doesn't it! I don't mind the snow as much as I just get chilled to the bone this time of year...have to crank the heat up in my house to about 74 to feel even remotely warm. Outdoor cigar weather is on the way though; we hope. :tu:r

I was in Dallas a few years age when they got a couple inches of snow. Funniest thing I ever saw. :r No concept of braking distances subject to change with snow and ice. :r

Re: Snow in Dixie
 

WOW, that's cool. Wish I was there to enjoy it!! :tu

Re: Snow in Dixie
 

I checked the radar this morning and thought I was seeing things. Snow just north of Dothan????

Re: Snow in Dixie
 

The band is moving northwest to southeast. We're at about 3-4 of accumulation at the moment. Dothan may well have light snow right now.

Snowing here in Alpharetta, just north of Atlanta, right now.

I sprayed caned snow on the windows here in FL,so I didn't feel left out.:wo:r:r:r

Re: Snow in Dixie
 

been snowing on and off here all day, about 45mins NW of Atlanta... cool stuff. First time my son has seen snow. :)

I realize we're not too far south here, but this is still a lot of snow for us....a once a year event if we're lucky. Here's a pic from my porch:

Nice pics guys. It's supposed to hit us here in southern NC by midnight. This will be the third time this year. That's a lot of snow for the south.

Re: Snow in Dixie
 

According to the weather channel it's now snowing in Montgomery, AL.

Re: Snow in Dixie
 

Ohh, I wish I was in Dixie, hooray, hooray!!!

Ours is finally melting here, just little patches here and there..... :tu

Well... we lost power for over 6 HOURS!

You know how cold your house gets w/o heat for 6 hours?! Freaking cold... we even had a fire going, but after the sun went down the temp dropped to under 60* INSIDE!

BRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Snow in Dixie
 

Hope everyone is ok.

WOW, that is one beautiful pic bro!! :tu

Looks like there's plenty of space to herf!! :D

Re: Snow in Dixie
 

I woke up to probably 6 inches of lake effect snow this morning........business as usual in WI unfortunately........ takes like a foot to close stuff down up here, or ice

Re: Snow in Dixie
 

About 6-8"+ here in Richmond, been without power since last night around 8, might not get restored for a few days they say. Fortunately that gas log insert we got works well enough to heat most of the house. Came in to work for a bit this morning, will post some pictures later.



Forgot to mention the coolest thing: last night we gathered around the fireplace & cranked up our Red Cross emergency radio, just for kicks. I've never used a shortwave, and we were having a blast picking up stations in Serbia, Radio China International, Tokyo, WRNO, and Radio Havana!:dance: That was cool!
