RE: Snow In Atlanta, A Foot Is BigDeal For Them - reilli - 12-14-2017 We rarely get snow in TX but got about an inch, same storm that hit Atlanta except it got stronger as it got there. Up north they are equipped for snow, in the south - not so much. RE: Snow In Atlanta, A Foot Is BigDeal For Them - Woodhouse - 01-15-2018 Every time snow hits ATL its a freaking mad house. A few years ago ppl got stuck in their cars on the side of the road for 8-12 hours. School kids got snowed in with no blankets. If i'm not mistaken they had to call in the Army National Guard to get gear to the kids. The Governor told everyone to leave their cars on the side of the highway and get home... Then the state started to tow any vehicles on the side of the road. |
