Unusual winter storm blankets metro Atlanta in snow
Atlanta started an early January weekend with a snow day, prompting many to go outside and enjoy an experience unique to the South.

As thick flakes fell to the ground, hundreds flocked to Piedmont Park and other Atlanta staples to take full advantage of a rare snow day.
