"The one-day snowfall of 2.6 inches ranked as the 20th heaviest in Atlanta, which has recorded a daily snowfall of an inch or more 55 times since 1928, according to the National Weather Service."

In Atlanta, snowfalls of greater than 2.6 inches happen every 4.25 years and snowfalls of greater than 1 inch happen every 1.5 years. And that doesn't include freezing rain storms and flash freezes.
