Surprise Snowstorm

The weather forecasters missed this one big time!  There wasn’t even a chance of rain forecasted.

On the morning of February 8th, 2010 it started sleeting, then changed over to snow completely by 9 AM. At its peak, over an inch an hour was falling, totalling almost 6 inches in Florence, Alabama.

2 more inches of rain is forecasted to fall tonight, but with temperatures around the freezing point, its anyone’s guess as to what exactly will fall.

My backyard, a bit later in the afternoon after some had melted.

This was during one of the more intense parts of the storm. My mom took this one.
