In the meantime, I was already off tomorrow and late shyt on Thursday...this shyt might shut down Valentines Day too

A winter storm watch has been posted for most of metro Atlanta, calling for as much as 2 inches of snow Monday night into Tuesday.



calling for as much as 2 inches are yall serious ?

I know right? We expecting 10-12 inches where I'm at

 

[AAKing23]

Man it's NBA all star weekend, this storm bet not kill my vibe

 

[FreshFromATL]

I know right? We expecting 10-12 inches where I'm at

But how many inches of ICE is y'all expecting

 

[Born2BKing]

I'm starting to think this shyt is ploy to help local politicians to appear concerned and weathermen and media to get rating. Now they saying shyt won't get bad until 7 or 8 am tomorrow but folks who don't work for the government or private companies who give a fukk are left just guessing what the hell to do. Every time I cut on the news it's a different story.

 

[Atlrocafella]

I'm interested in seeing what tomorrow is like..Nothing really came down on the east today but a lil rain

 

[Ciggavelli]

is up with the weather this year? It is shytty all over the country
