I can't believe that when we woke up this morning there was ACTUALLY snow covering the rooftops and cars.  It wasn't alot to most people but I can't remember the last time we saw snow here.  Luckily, the schools and most businesses were closed today due to the Presidents Day Holiday.  Otherwise, I am sure they would have shut down the city.

This is practically a one time event here in Virginia Beach.  I come from the Midwest and my husband comes from upstate New York so it was kind of refreshing to see the snow on the ground every once in awhile.  I am grateful though that this is probably the worst of it for this year. 

All in all I do hate the cold and snow but it is beautiful to see every once in awhile.

It was all melted when I awoke at 5 am in Portsmouth. I did see 5 flakes fall in Hampton about 20 minutes ago. 2 or 3 more and schools will be shut down

David - too funny...are you sure it wasn't only 4 snowflakes? 

Alan - if you look really close there is a little of snow touching the ground.  Believe me it is a BLIZZARD here!

Sorry, Naoma, if i have to "look really close" that doesn't count as Snow.

Naoma, I bet it was quite a surprise to find snow on the ground! We had a slight dusting last night out in Blacksburg, but not enough to make a difference. - Kat

Naoma,

Close the schools...it's snowing! I love Virginia Beach. I've been there a couple of times and each time the dolphins were frolicking in the ocean.

Richard - Thanks for commenting! It is definitely a GREAT place to visit and live.  Now that I live at the beach I don't think I will ever want to leave!
