Damn, I miss those days. I rememeber one year it snowed on a Sunday and they automatically closed schools in Gwinnett county for Monday and Tuesday because it was so heavy. Sunday evening, the snow began to melt and on Monday morning it was gone. On Tuesday, it hit 65F outside and all us schoolkids were in heaven. It was awesome.

Of course, there is always the snow Atlanta saw in the blizzard of '94. That was true insanity for the South.
