Snow Day!

Now that's something we don't get to say often in North Carolina. Yup, Old Man Winter is smacking the south-east nicely with a storm. Atlanta got hit and now parts of North Carolina too.

With school out for the day, I'm working from home.

The snow we got was nice flakes early this morning (midnight to about 6am). Then it turned into sleet, which will make it wet. Yuck. Should switch over to rain by noon or so, and tomorrow's high of 50 will make it all go away. But, for the briefest of moments we get a winter wonderland.

Doesn't Feel Like Christmas Yet

First, I feel bad for everyone in the midwest that got slammed by the ice storms and such this week. That is just horrible conditions. I hope things improve there soon.

Meanwhile, here in NC, it hardly feels like Christmas time. The highs this week have been in the 70's. Now, I'm not asking for snow and ice - God forbid as Southerners just freak out at the mere chance of flakes. No, I wouldn't mind a little drop in temperature - perhaps a brisk upper 40's or so with a gentle, crisp breeze.

I hear we're supposed to get some weather from the North pushing down on us later in the week. That would be nice. Just to have the feeling of Christmas back in NY, without all the slush, muck and such.
