Snowmageddon remnants

People here seem to have survived the Big Snow of 2010 without nearly as much chaos as I expected. I think the fact that the snow didn’t happen until late evening when most people were already inside help a lot.

Around downtown and my end of James Island, the snow was pretty much gone by noon the next day, except for a few shady areas.

These sad little snowman carcasses are pretty much all that remain from Snowmageddon CHS 2010. Even those are probably being slowly melted away by the rain we’re getting this afternoon.

a.k.a. Snowmageddon Charleston 2010

This is what I’d call the first significant snow I’ve seen in Charleston since moving here. It’s definitely an event that people will remember for a while.

I’m supposed to be heading off to volunteer at the Aquarium and then at SEWE for Wild Heir Lab Rescue, but I’m kind of afraid to get on the road. Not because of the road conditions, but because of the way people around here will drive in them.

Almost makes me feel like being back home.
