We had snow yesterday.

This would be the stupidest thing ever deemed worthy of updating the internet about (if you ignore about 2/3 of Facebook) except this is like a once-a-year thing in The NC.  It immediately becomes a trending topic on Twitter.  And people immediately take a bunch of pictures of it.  I did so myself, even though I lived most of my life in Montana and Michigan and have seen snow about 12 million times (number approximate).

Out back.

It actually accumulated on the grass.  Not on the sidewalks.  In December!  In Raleigh!  Wake County was so baffled they declared an emergency school day on Sunday so they would have something to cancel.
