Oh the Weather Outside is Frightful

We live in the sunny south or at least I thought we did.  It's 31º outside and about 3-4 inches of snow on the ground.  Unreal. I know other parts of the country get much colder and have much more snow, but geez Louise, we live 5 miles from the coast in Georgia, we're not supposed to get weather like this.
Take a look.

Back deck, doesn't the pool look strange surrounded by snow?

  1. That is amazing that you have snow - it is unusual for us to get snow in the Cotswolds, but even more so for you.

  2. It does look pretty, especially if you're indoors looking through the window!

  3. Well that does make a big change for you. I’m sure it won’t last. You’ll be back in the 80’s before you know it! B x

  7. It looks really pretty. It's cold here but we haven't had snow really just a smattering. Keep yourself warm. Donna x

  8. Our high temperature for today was 32 F--for about an hour in the mid-afternoon. No snow, but unpleasantly cold--winters here [south-central Kentucky] are very unpredictable.

  9. Your pool looks like it is ready for your very own Polar Bear Plunge!

  10. LOL. It is way colder here and snowier. I guess up in Michigan (in the lake snow belt) it's just something that happens. I won't ever get used to it, but snow is expected and a lot of it. It's been snowing for days and, although pretty, I've just about had enough. I know that there are a couple months more to come. I'd love it to be 31C!

  13. Our snow has gone to make way for storms, but at least it was seasonal snow and could have been worse. Love your house, and the pool looks inviting even with snowy surroundings.

  14. It does look lovely though :-) Snow is good for a while but usually only a short while. Hope it warms up where you are soon.

  17. Why, Janet, you could ski right into your pool! We have about the same as you. We heard 1989 was the last snow like this here in Georgetown.

  18. No snow here, but colder than a witch's heart! Your snow looks pretty, at least. Stay warm!

  19. Crazy weather for the south! I am happy to get some snow, although it could be warmer.

  20. Wow that's more than we have here... We had snow before Christmas, none over Christmas, a little again for New Year, but now all gone again...

  21. There does seem to be rather a lot of freak weather around this year.

  22. You've got to admit ... it does look pretty.
    I do hope it warms up for you soon though.

    All the best Jan

  24. It is really beautiful isn't it? I hope you have warmed up a bit, we are expected to finally start warming up today. Happy 2018!

  25. You know, this is exactly the weather I avoided by traveling on I-95 in the middle of the night! Coming back from Greenville, SC, the plan had been to spend the night in Bluffton. After we checked into the hotel, had dinner, and THEN saw the news and weather forecast, we left the hotel at 9:30 at night (never having slept in the nice, warm bed) and drove home all night. But I have to admit, it looks pretty from the inside - ha!

  26. Thanks for coming over to Marmelade Gypsy -- I'm so glad I came back over here! I know winter is much worse for those of you in the south than here, but let me tell you, it's no picnic even when you are used to it! We just learn to adjust -- cook warm food, read loads of books and do crafty things (unless you are like my Rick who lives for snow and cross country skiing. This is not an area on which we agree!) Anyway, it's getting warm here today (and back cold tomorrow) and most of our Michigan snow has melted, so I'm sure it will be much better for you very soon!
