It's been colder in Atlanta the past two nights than on the summit of Whitney, which means all this snow (mostly ice now) is taking it's sweet time about going away. We'll typically get an inch or two a couple of times each winter, but it's normally gone in 24-36 hours as temps get above freezing. This particular 8-inch dump was followed by really frigid air and there's been little opportunity for melt. The city has been pretty much shut down since Sunday afternoon, so we're in to a 5th day of paralysis. Freeways and major surface roads are reasonably passable, but all the secondary roads - where people live, basically - are still appropriate for filming Ice Road Truckers. I'm in to my 5th day of being stuck at work. Hope to make it home by tomorrow!
