I had the distinct pleasure of walking the streets of Charleston, S.C., for the first time a couple of years ago. Today they are covered with snow.
Snow also covers the beaches, much to the joy of local children.
For many it is the first time they have seen accumulating snow. The look on their faces? Priceless.
The storm drove a tight plume of tropical moisture ashore onto the cold dome.
The result was a quick burst of heavy snow.
Now we watch as the storm races up the east coast Thursday.
