Freezing Weather in Deeply South in 2017

Last snow in front of my house in Louisiana

We are living in the “deep south,” especially Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, experienced “deadly cold” weather last year around December 31, 2017 to early January of 2018. Quite long freezing temperature for areas which reach 41⁰ C in the summer.

On that time, temperature reached below freezing, 22 F and 16 F (-6 C and -9 C) in the last several days. We feel like live in the artic region, so frost.

I myself feel “trouble” if too long to expose to low temperature, it is because human organs such as nervous system and heart can’t work under hypothermia condition.

Then, almost to February, rain was icy like. There was a 20 percent chance of snow. My question then: “Should we have second snow? Wait and see!” Yes, we have snow, but thin snow only, no more than 2 inches. 

I have the question this year: “will we have snow in December 2018 to January 2019?” The answer, I don’t know yet. Just wait until that happen or not.
