It was surprising to hear it snowed in Atlanta. I doubt it will snow on
Tybee Island in February. But it won't be what I consider tropical
warmth, either. It may feel that way to you, though.

Just an FYI, a few years ago I was sitting in a neighbor's kitchen,
chit-chatting. I was facing the windows. I had to blink to make sure,
then stopped her in mid-sentence: "It's snowing!" It was just a quick
spate of snowflakes, gone just as fast as we could notice them. That
was in early *May*.
