It's Snowing!!! IN ATLANTA!!!

can you tell I'm excited? :D

We're getting real snow, that is sticking. The dogs don't want to come in. I'm going to take them to the dog park after awhile, so they can romp around in the white stuff with their doggy pals!!!

and still brown grass in upstate NY
I'm dang depressed. BIL in Dallas measured 12" of snow IN DALLAS!!!! So jealous.

But the giggle inside for me is, his electricity also went out!! His wife is currently on a warm cruise (she said 72 degrees), and he has no idea where anything is in the house (like matches for candles) ...and is left watching their twins. Bwahahahahaha :twisted:
So, if there's SNOW in Georgia....doesn't that mean there should be green grass and sunshine up here??? :?

That would be only fair, right? :wink:
Snow in the south everywhere!
We are sharing the love... :D :D
We officially got over 11 inches in DFW, in a 24 hour period. A new record. It never stopped. Beautiful, but very wet. Great snowmen, but tree branches are falling. No school today, but a makeup day at the end of the year.

It just barely got above freezing today, so the roads are clearing. But they will be icy in the morning and these people have no clue how to drive on ice.

I did get some great pictures though.
Hubby said he heard on the radio today that at 2PM today ALL 50 states had snow on the ground somewhere! 8O
I heard everywhere except Hawaii..
We are getting ready to get some
of your blizzard!

No Lure Cousing tomorrow but,
we can build a snow man (maybe a snow boy)

The pups first snow!!! :banana: :banana:

Thanks for sharing the love Dawn!
Enjoy!!! Nothng in life is as much fun as the first (and only) snowfall of the season!
Fun fun. Enjoy it. No snow here but that is okay with me. :)

At first I thought wow what a bummer you missed out Mrs J. then I had a good chuckle. Its the opposite of a silver lining for you BIL
Yeah, I was wondering about Hawaii and Mona Kea/Mona Loa, but maybe they are currently bare.

Quote:
Forty-nine states have snow now, from the Gulf Coast's Redneck Riviera to the skyscrapers of Dallas.

The lone holdout? Hawaii.

Although snow falls every winter on Hawaii's two tallest volcanoes, the National Weather Service in Honolulu said there was no snow in the state Friday.

Snow had even fallen in the Florida Panhandle and along the South Carolina coast. However, snow has been lighter than usual in New England. Forecasters say El Nino has driven many of this year's storms southward.

Weather service meteorologist Brian Korty says it's extremely rare to have so many states with snow

So... I made Adam go to Best Buy and get me a Flip video camera. (actually, I was gonna go and he offered). We went right to the dog park and shot some very fun footage:

:D
Very fun!!

I bet that was quite the novel experience for the girls..... 8)

Chewie can't go out to potty without coming in covered with snow :roll:
Luna's first experience with those pesky Snow Eggs:

she kept rubbing her face in the snow until she could hardly see from the things! Once we got her home we had to put her into a warm bath.

Atlanta... or the Swiss Alps?

Luna at our Dog Park:

Oh my! :lol:

Poor Luna!, or maybe, poor Allison :wink: Was this your first encounter with trying to remove sheepie-snowballs (and the mats that accompany them :evil: ) ?

I know its only February, but we are doing a shave-down today on our dogs, due to too many snow-induced mats! :(
I'm so glad that all of you are enjoying your snow. Being a Winnipegger myself, I'm more than done with all that. I dream of green winters.

But I'm not above being very happy for you guys. Enjoy.
we had to put poor Luna into a warm bath when we got her home. she could hardly sit in the car, she was so snowed up. Tonks of course was jealous of the attention Luna got, and insisted on getting into Luna's bath water when Luna was done. Tonks smartly stopped every 5 minutes or so at the park to chew hew own snow-eggs off her feet. :D

The mats were a bit nightmarish; makes me glad we had just dematted and bathed the girls right before the snow storm. I had Luna mostly dematted again by yesterday.
Such good photos of Luna. Love the snow ..........looks BEAUTIFUL!!! :)

...working towards that OES.org Christmas card for next year!
Cards from GA with snow - imagine that!

Looks nice - and I call that real snow :wink:
Darth, they're all really portrait worthy!
Those pics are beautiful :D i cant believe how much sticking snow you've got! :o
that's what i thought; this wasn't the standard Georgia snow that hits the ground and melts. This was heavy, wet, sticky North Eastern style snow. I felt like I was back in New Jersey!
Great pictures! Hasn't it been fun??? But this last one did cancel ANOTHER trip to Atlanta for me--sigh! But I really have enjoyed our SOUTHERN snow this year!
I prefer the fluffy white Colorado powder, that has been on the ground since Oct. it will leave sometime end of april/begin of may.

So where's the global warming they've been promising us with such certainty for years now? :lol:
