happened in a number of years, but it would be the fourth time we've had snow. This is N Fla., not the beaches. Our foliage turns in the Fall, and we have actual seasons. Hate to lose my electric, though. Gonna be cold.

Desatan even told people not to drive unnecessarily. It's snowing in Tallahassee. Schools are closed tomorrow.

So far at 8:15pm CST, we have 3 inches and it’s still coming down. Our cats aren’t abiding! And we’re a mile from the Gulf of WTF HE WANTS TO CALL IT.
