A lot of yall wouldn’t have survived the models in January of 2014 or December of 2017. Models looked like ---- sandwiches up to em expect for the mighty NAM on 12/8/17. Never give up when you have moisture in the gulf.

I had waved the white flag and moved on with January 2014 during my attempt to move away from my parents (college related, and yeah it didn't work out). I figured that we might could get a dusting based on what I was reading on the forum the "group" was at and then went to focusing on studying something I don't remember as it's been too long, it started snowing and didn't stop until probably near late afternoon and Rome probably got almost 4 inches of snow estimating, at least where I was at.

Remarkable storm. Since I'm never going to leave the SE, probably one of the few times I'll see it snow while it's below 20 degrees. Once it was clear class was cancelled and I wasn't going to slide everywhere when driving, I went to spend the weekend with my grandma, and we talked about the happenings of the storm. Really want to say that she talked about how somebody went into labor when they were stuck in the snowjam.

To be honest, I've probably waved the white flag here...at least I'm close.

I have a really hard time believing they went like 70 years without a snowfall of 1.2" + before 1973.

Significant (say 1”+) snow accumulations were very rare in S GA 1903-1973. For example, Albany had just one (Nov 1912). Tifton did have 2. Alma, just E of Douglas, had none although their record doesn’t start til 1937-8. Brunswick had none. SAV had only 2 of 1”+ during those 70 years and they’re at a higher latitude.
So, there’s no reason not to believe it.

It's just weird. And now they may have 3 in 8 years ? It's amazing the difference 100 miles can make. Do you know if Americus also just had 1 in that 70 year period like Albany did ? Savannah and Americus are at the same latitude, so if Savannah only had 2 maybe it's the same for Americus.

Bouncycorn is the falcons at halftime of the Super Bowl right now. He has no idea what’s coming in the second half. It’s a 4 quarter game!!!

A missed field goal to lose, or the firing of the staff? I think both relate to this storm.
