Snowed in? Really? In Coastal Carolina? Part 2

Remember that flip entry about how it never snows in my corner of SC, or once in a blue moon? Well.. what color is the moon tonight?


"Snowed in? Really? In Coastal Carolina?"

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for Berkeley, inland Colleton, Dorchester, Orangeburg, and Williamsburg counties.


Light rain and drizzle will mix with and change to snow late tonight and Tuesday with accumulations up to one inch possible in the advised area.  Some higher amounts are possible if heavier bands of snow develop during the day on Tuesday.


Accumulations should be confined to mostly grassy surfaces and rooftops, but bridges and overpasses may become slick if snow becomes a little more intense.


Scattered snow showers are expected across the entire area on Tuesday, but the advised area has the greatest chance of seeing accumulating snow.








Thank goodness, I am staying home moaning and groaning about it, instead of driving in it today.





P.S. Dear Hubby called. He wants to a mount a machine gun (or was it a grenade launcher?) on his SUV for the Southerners who don't know how to drive in winter weather. Hey topsey is that part of the more courteous society you were ranting about earlier?
