Melting snow clings to a pine branch on, appropriately enough, Southern Pines Road in south Roanoke County Snow on pines and pine cones along Southern Pines Road The wet snow clung to every branch of many trees A little leftover slush along South Mountain Road. Some streets became slushy early this morning. Seth Gitner's video of the Broderick Family of southwest Roanoke County. The family recently moved to Roanoke from Alabama, and the children have only experienced snow once before. Taking advantage of a day off from school, they spent their day playing in the snow. |

Cecil WingoThis reminds me of some of the White Christmases we had in Roanoke back in the day. They did not come every year buy when they did they were very special. In 1960 we had a Christmas snow that sticks out in my mind like it was yesterday. Living here in NW Indiana we have snow all of the time so it is not the treat it was in Roanoke whne I was a child.
