In the winter of '83 I think, maybe '84, I remember a very strong cold front and and storm system that came through and there were tornado watches out, although I don't recall there being any tornadoes, and just an hour behind the frontal passage it was snowing. I know that happened through parts of Georgia and the Upstate of SC. It was kinda nerve racking on the thunderstorm side of it. I remember when I heard that it was snowing in Athens, I thought.....thank God, we'll be on the cold side soon, and sure enough, within an hour we were getting snow.
