Seems like we missed out on the snow here in the mountains. Good solid rain though so I guess we can't complain.

We got close to 3" here in Wetumpka,AL - about 10 minutes north of Montgomery. I for one doubted that it would materialize but I was very wrong. Not much of a day to be out due to the 25-30mph winds. BRRRRRRR!

Mnn, I'm about sick of the snow here! I went out looking for a couple arrows I lost a few weeks ago, still a foot of frozen solid snow in the timber! Come on Spring Turkeys!   :bigsmyl:

C'mon Biggie, if they can fake the moon landings how do you expect us to believe that.    :readit:    You should've at least got the local Piggly Wiggly in the shot.

We've had on and off blowing snow, sleet and rain all day. Some snow sticking on the grass but on bare soil or in trees. Charlotte will probably get 6" to 8". Go figure...I live in the mountains at 2600'.
  We will probably get 2" of needed moisture from this system. We've been in extreme drought conditions for a few years now so every little bit helps.

You have to get right out in that tomorrow Biggie and start tracking somthing, you won't get many chances like that down there......now if you were up here you'd be screaming about the foot and a half that's coming tonight and tomorrow.....  :banghead:    :banghead:  If I could figure a way to send it your way I wouldn't hesitate, believe me......

You better go and get Peanut to show you how to track in the snow.  I bet she will find whatever you are looking for.    :bigsmyl:

We even got some at Lake Blackshear...the robins & redbirds were trying to eat it as it fell...thought it was bugs i guess.  My brittany didn' care for it so we came back in after he treed a squirrel...would have been nice to stick for a day or two to get to the woods.....looks like we just got the tail end of it.

As long as you guys only track in it...I have family in Georgia, so I know how bad the snow affects the driving.  :smileystooges:  

Enjoy it while you have it guys.  :campfire:

Our snow started sticking about sunset and has just stopped. We have about 5" and the temp is 28 and dropping. I will finally get to use a sled I bought 5 years ago.
