Southern Winters...

Last week the weather forecasters were calling for snow on Friday.  Everyone was in a frenzy and grocery stores were emptied in preparation.  As Friday approached, the weather was supposed to roll in during the late afternoon, early evening hours.  That didn't stop the school system from closing their doors and giving the girls a three day weekend.  

At 3:00, the weather looked a little something like this at our house...


As you can see,  it was terrible weather.  Hard to travel in, and definitely cause to cancel school.  

In their defense, the snow did hit that evening, long after the school day would have ended.  We woke up to the most beautiful 2-3 inches of snow.

The weather warmed up and the snow started to melt.  The streets are definitely drivable today (dry in most areas) and it is business as usual.  Or is it...?!

This afternoon we got the message...


You read that right.  The snow melted.  The streets are cleared.  Life is back to normal.  But school is closed - making that a four day weekend for the girls.  I guess that is what living in the South during winters has in store for us.
