Thundersnow 2009

March 2, 2009 § 4 Comments

So Atlanta got some snow this weekend. A LOT of snow on Sunday to be exact. It wasn’t particularly cold, but it started as some sleet and soon graduated to pretty chunky flakes that were nonstop for hours (with some rumbling thunder, hence the “thundersnow“). We must have gotten at least 2 inches that actually stuck.

We ventured out to grab lunch and run some errands, and I was not so secretly thanking the baby jesus that grocery shopping was not involved. Atlantans pretty much go ape shit when it snows (or rains for that matter), so I was not about to wrestle over bread and milk. Luckily for us Willy’s, Best Buy, and Barnes & Noble were just as peaceful as the scenery was outdside.

The dogs were pretty unimpressed by the whole scenario (though it would probably would have gone over better if their momma had gotten them some muttluks!)

And of course stupid Atlanta went and canceled school on Monday, when it was clear and sunny and after all the ice and snow had melted. Geniuses, I tell you.
