We(East Alabama) have snow! (Pics)
These were taken early this morning... much more snow is on the ground now. The snow is still falling and will continue(nonstop) until 3pm. We are in an eastern portion of bama that is supposed to expect somewhere from 2 to 5 inches of snow(according to our local forecasts). The snow is falling heavily, and nonstop! I cannot remember a full-blown snow shower like this in Alabama in my lifetime.









yours truly and little sis in the snow -

6. Yeah, I might be a little less anti-snow if I could get out to do some snowboarding...
But I haven't done that in three or four years. x(

14. THIS x A BRAZILLIAN
We just got 8" here the other day. A few days before, we got 4". Once you get north of about 40°N latitude in North America, you get pretty sick of snow. Especially by March. x(

10. 2-5 inches!
Oh, Ava! You are too cute...all excited like a little kid! I love the picture of you with your little sis.
We're getting 12-15, and 2-5 would be a little storm, so I'm lovingly amused by all of this.
The pictures really are beautiful...

The only good thing is I'll get a day off from work...no school.
The bad thing....PANIC. I hate getting snowed in....I get claustrophobic in my own home.
Enjoy your winter wonderland! :hug:

For you:
:woohoo:
For me:
:scared:


peace~

28. We're about to get hit here.
6-10 inches over the next 18 hours.

Melted snow sounds like heaven.

I want spring, and I want it now. :(

20. You should roll those snowballs around the yard and make a snowman!
How much snow did you get, or is it still coming down?

25. we made three snowmen!
:hi:

it kept snowing until about 2:45(began snowing at 6) and it was nonstop and heavy. the top of our cars accumulated about 4inches of snow by noon- which came in handy for snowballs lol ;). that's crazy for alabama!
