It snowed! And this time, even in inches it is noteworthy, at least for this part of the country.
We were on our way to ATL and actually turned back because the storm was so bad – lots of ice on overpasses and poor visibility and wrecks and stuff. We took the boys outside to play when we got home and they loved the first hour or so – until the thrill of snow turned to just cold and wet1.
I was all set to make fun of the news folks who prepped for days and days about the coming storm: when we woke up on Saturday there was a light dusting, but no real snow. Not until about 9, anyway. My bad, newsguys – you don’t completely suck at weather.
- Really, that’s more my gripe than theirs. [↩]
