Atlanta's White Christmas - 2010
12/27/2010 13:55
The last week has been one heck of a roller coaster ride for this weather geek! But in the end, it all paid off...
My first snowman built on Christmas! I know.... pathetic... he’s tiny... and his nose fell off over night...
This one definitely goes down in the history books, with Atlanta seeing its first White Christmas since 1881!
This has been added to the History section of the site: HERE.
Looking ahead, rumblings of a possible severe weather maker for New Year’s. Then whispers of warmer weather (compared to December’s cold) for January. That doesn’t mean there won’t be any wintery fun though! This has been a very odd La Nina so far this late fall/early winter season. Things continue to look interesting and far from boring going into January.
Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year!

Snow?

Looks like we are in for some really miserable weather tonight... cold, rain, and becoming windy...
However, tomorrow(Sunday) may offer up a few snow showers! MAYBE a dusting for some lucky folks in the Atlanta metro area... Unfortunately, it won’t be enough to create the chaos and disorder that we need for a snow day come Monday. There likely won’t be snow on the ground, but it is going to be really really cold on Monday with temps not making it above freezing. Nice. Then pipe busting cold Monday night, so make sure you take steps to avoid that!
All this cold so early in winter... Does this mean all winter is going to be brutally cold? Probably not... With the current La Nina pattern, we will likely see things trend warmer and drier into January/February, so if you love wintery mischief like me, enjoy these December threats.
