Got Some Here Too!

I'm in West Central Georgia and I think we got the bulk of it. I'd say 4-5" of it which is rare here. It looks good and is "pretty" as my wife says, but I wouldn't want to deal with it on a regular basis. Here's a pic, but the Bronco must stay in the dry shop!

No snow in Chicago today, just a lot of brown grass and 28 degree temps.

Body shops down there are gonna be real happy.

you got that right. It's been snowing for about 5 hours. We live about 5 blocks from a fire station and they have been running all day. People in Atlanta can't drive to start with. Add snow or ice and the body count grows rapidly.

I just drove back from Savannah and 75, 675 and 285 looks like a demolition derby. I must have passed either 10 wrecks or people spun off down an embankment.

We got about 4-5 inches over in Decatur as well. Here's a shot of me cleaning the snow off for a cruise with the family. While we were out we saw a huge tree that fell on an SUV and new house in our community. Yikes! :-X

Hey, I don't envy you guys at all. Snow is the #1 reason I will never move any further North than I am now. I absolutley hate it and I'm really glad I don't have to deal with it very much. But the good thing about Georgia is that it will be back to the 70's by next weekend!

I like snow and don't mind driving in it, but in atlanta my broncos DO NOT leave the garage. People here are IDIOTS. Coming home from church the wife's car with traction control was slipping at all the stop lights and stop signs. People were screaming up to lights and sliding to a stop and fish tailing alway. No way will I put my trucks out with these insane people.

I spent two years in Providence RI when I was in college so I learned a little about driving in snow. Phred's right. Most of the drivers here are morons...I did get a few chuckles once I saw they weren't hurt

We got dumped on here with snow (Greenville SC) tonight - the hardest snow fall I've seen in years. We've probably got a good 3 to 4 inches.
