Anyone else in the south east get to experience snow this weekend? It's kind of a rarity for us.

We are getting snow now in MA...but it always snows here. 3" really isn't enough to slow things down here.

Welcome to my world, between the snow and salt on the streets that's why the Mustang sits for 4 to 5 months of the year. Don't even try to drive it, especially a manual. you won't get out of the driveway.

Got about 4" here in southern CT. so far.
It's funny to hear 4-5" closed dealerships and brought down power, but
understandable given certain states aren't equipped to deal with it.
This unfortunately is considered just a dusting for us.

Oh it was a blast. Got at least 8", probably more honestly. I have a dozen pine trees that look like telephone poles now. I'll be cutting up branches and burning them for at least another year. Thankfully they had the power back up by mid afternoon. Hard to explain to a 3 year old that I can't warm up his milk, and I can't make toast. He's running around yelling "Get new batteries for the microwave."
We do not get any county road service in my neighborhood, so the neighborhood got busy this morning shoveling the street out so the sun could dry the surface before the refreeze tonight. I had the only working chainsaw and cut all the fallen limbs out of the road. Also got my neighbors driveway dug out and limb free. He is 70 and had to get to the hospital because his wife is in heart surgery.
Not sure what my driveway will be ok in the morning. The snow melting off the roof drains across the driveway, so I might be pulling out of the garage onto a solid sheet of ice when I leave for work at 5am tomorrow. I thought I had some road salt, but I don't.

They just don't have the equipment to deal with it in masse. Up on the northeast, every contractor has a plow. We can get 24" and be dug out in a day. A snowblower is an invaluable tool.
Looks like we got about 4" too up in MA. I just got new tires on the Taurus and was testing them out tonight while it was quiet on the roads.

New batteries for the microwave......lol that is hilarious!
Glad you got power back.
Up here the state was spraying calcium chloride on the highways Friday.
Although great for melting snow that
is horrible for cars, might as well spraybattery acid on the roads. Makes the salt they used to use look like baby powder.

Got a new 28" Troy-Bilt this year can't wait to try it out, although not really enough snow to see what it's got.
This is the kinda in between where I can't decide if I break out the snowblower or just shovel a path and let it melt the next few days

I'm gonna get up in the morning and enjoy a cup of coffee on my patio, I will have to put a jacket on. The neighbors hate it when I sit out there nekid
Now where did I put those batteries for the coffee maker

Spending the weekend at work here. I wasn't even going to attempt to drive home to come back to work tonight knowing most people here don't know how to handle the weather. I won't be leaving the hospital until Monday morning....
Luckily there are a bunch of empty rooms since they've built the new tower across the street. I have my own private room in one of the old wings - better than curling up on a concrete floor!!
Anyway, here are a few pics of what it looked like outside Emory University Hospital.....
This one was taken right after they opened the tower and I had a patient to test in the beginning of October.....
Here is roughly the same view this morning.....
Another shot outside the main building's cafeteria this morning....
Brings hints of memories from back home.....
