For as long as I can remember, every snowstorm in South Carolina has occurred in the same manner. They begin by telling us that we will get a dusting on the grass, if we're lucky, and we end up with 5 plus inches. This was no different. They've promised us measurable snow a few times this season, with nothing materializing, yet. This time, they said we would possibly get a dusting up to half an inch. Then, as time got closer for the storm to arrive, we were told 1-2 inches, then 3-5, only to end up with 8 total. It was due to arrive at 4pm on Friday, so naturally all schools and daycares closed between 1:30 and 3 without a flake even falling, yet. Wesley picked all of the kids up early, so I was able to work my regular schedule. When I left, there was already some accumulation, so I knew we were in for a good one. We don't get it often, so I'm glad the kids were able to get out and enjoy it, even if they froze their little butts off.
