Yep, must be that Global Warming thing....
Just received this from a family friend down there.
"Well it is a white day for New Orleans. Woke up with the biggest flakes falling that I have seen down here. We have had about 2 inches and things are really covered.
But now it is turning to sleet so that means alot of closures. Hope it clears up before evening when people go home as they sure don't know how to drink in this stuff.
It has turned to ice across the lake so alot of power outages. Sure don't need that. Just thought I would let you know and thank you all for sharing with us. Ha !!! Have a great day. Good day to get my gifts that I have bought wrapped etc."
