It's snowing in ATL for the 2nd time in a week.

To be accurate, a little over a week. If I wanted this much snow, I would have stayed in NY.

We are very cold.
But we didn't get snow.
Did you sell your snow shovel when you moved?

I'm ready this time though. I got a snow shovel and ice melt yesterday, just in case. Didn't think it would happen again, boy was I wrong.

They say that if it stays on the ground for three days or more, it will snow again. The last time it snowed here (I am a bit north of Atlanta), it stayed on the ground for at least three days.

but there are still drifts left from last week's snowfall. The temperature hasn't been up to freezing in a week. I loathe January!

drove my 1965 Malibu SS convertible to Illinois in the Great Southeastern Snowstorm: February 9-11, 1973. One of the greatest snowstorms in Southeastern United States history occurred February 9-11, 1973. This storm dropped one to two feet of snow across a region that typically sees only an inch or two of snow per year.
