“James,
One last note for you…..here are four photos, two scenes contrast from this afternoon to a more tranquil setting earlier this fall.
I have never seen such a deep snowpack here this early in the season. Since the air coming your way usually comes from the Midwest during the winter, it could portend some cold air later on in the season for Alabama. My best estimate of snowfall here in downtown since it began about 5:30am this morning is around 6 to 7 inches on top of what was already on the ground from the past 10 days means there is about a 13 inch snowpack here. Very little freezing rain. Just a brief bout with that around noon and then it quickly changed back over to heavy, wet snow.”
