Hearing a loud rumble of thunder a few minutes ago, I quickly logged onto weather.com to check on the local conditions, since we still don't have TV and it's not as easy to get a weather report at the drop of a hat. As I typed in our zip code, and our local page loaded, what did I see? 80% chance of 1-2 inches of snow Sunday evening/night? What on Earth? Wasn't it just in the 60s a couple days ago?!? That's Georgia weather for you though. And it IS officially March now, and if we're going to get snow we typically get it in March or April, especially the "bad" snow/ice storms. So this should be interesting to see what actually happens.
After I read the report, I remembered one of my customers at work mentioning something about the possibility of snow on Sunday, but they didn't give it much credit, and neither did I at the time. But apparently it's supposed to get really cold by Sunday night, and the rain that's moved into the area is going to mix it up with a massive cold air mass, and potentially make things interesting for north and central Georgia. Or so they say. They're predicting 1-2 inches of "wet snow", possibly more in some isolated areas, but that it shouldn't be too bad. And a lot of it will probably melt off due to the recent warm temperatures we've been having. However, if the cold front is strong enough, they said that there COULD be significant chances for several inches of snow to accumulate on the roads, making driving conditions less than favorable. Again, we'll have to watch this one closely, and see what happens, but I've called Monica and told her that she could be driving home in snow tomorrow, if she leaves too late. That would be just what we need...her getting stranded somewhere between there and nowhere (where we live.)
I'll be keeping an eye on this one. White rabbits, white rabbits, white rabbits. Happy March everyone, and bring on the snow. (But can you wait until Monday so we can have a day off!)
