Snow Hits Georgia Again

Published by admin | Filed under Blogroll

It wasn’t in the northern part like they thought it would be, but the folks in Atlanta and south of Atlanta is getting a pretty good bit of snow right now. Our temps are about to plument over the next 24 hours and it’s going to be really cold. So there is a good chance for the people in Georgia that has snow on the ground now, it will be sticking around for sometime.

Interesting developments taking place on the drought in Northern Georgia. Just a couple of days ago they announced that Lake Allatoona had reached it’s full level pool for this time of the year. So the drought is over for places like Cherokee County, Cobb County and Bartow County, right? Not so fast, they still say that the area around Lake Allatoona is in a drought situation. Huh? What exactly is a drought? Isn’t it when the water levels are below what they should be? When rain hasn’t fell in a really long time? We have been getting nice amounts of rain and snow over the last month, the lake is where it normally is, but they still say we are in a drought? I think that’s a little bit of hogwash and no we are not in a drought anymore. We might have minimal levels of supply and a drought could be forecasted for the near future, but as of January 19th for the folks around the Etowah River in Canton and the surrounding areas of Lake Allatoona; we are not in a drought!
