It just started snowing today around 3pm, to my amazement. For the past couple days they have been reporting about this winter storm that would include some kind of unusual white, fluffy matter. It's been big news here. Last night schools were already making decisions to close for today. I was proud of GCSU for not closing and I headed out to my 10am class only hear a voicemail an hour later telling me that they were closing campus at noon. So, I headed home laughing about the crazy southerners for all their hysteria. Have they seen all the snow up north? But, let's be serious, people here don't own snow shovels, ice scrapers, or even winter gloves for that matter. They are totally and utterly helpless! I have already been hearing about the mass chaos at Kroger.
Here's a picture to give you an idea of what southern winter storm looks like. And, that is definitely snow (mixed with rain).
The past week has ruined my ability to be impressed by any snow accumulation less than 12".
