When Will Georgia Get Snow This Season?
Winter is coming, and it’s not uncommon for us to get a little snow in Georgia. Not much, but hey, some. Maybe you’re someone who dreads the snow or is excited about seeing the white stuff. Either way, you’re probably wondering, when will Georgia get snow this season? Well, here are the stats and probabilities on when to expect that winter weather to arrive.
Before we get to snow in our area, let’s look at one American city that’s never gotten snow. The Farmer’s Almanac has a story about the places in America that have never gotten cold enough to get any snow. “As the summer sun fades and chillier nights and mornings begin to creep onto the calendar, your thoughts might turn to that four-letter word which some of us love, and others love to hate: snow,” they state. “You may wonder: What are some cities, states, or countries where it has never snowed?”
Believe it or not, it’s never, ever snowed in Key West, Florida. “Not only has Key West never experienced snow, it’s never seen frost, ice, or sleet either,” the article states. “That’s because Florida’s low latitude and low elevation hinder temperatures from getting cold enough for snow to fall, let alone accumulate on the ground.” Lucky Key West.
When Will Georgia Get Snow This Season?
Now, onto our state. According to Weather.com, the average first snowfall of the year arrives from Jan. 21 – Feb. 8 in Atlanta. But, they note, “For more southern locations, such as Atlanta and Dallas, instead of mentioning an average first date of measurable snow, we specify an average timeframe during which you can expect the ‘best chance’ of measurable snow each year, defined by the average first and last dates of measurable snow. This is typically in January and February from the Carolinas to north Texas.” Find the full story on the average first snowfall dates here.
Holiday Dating Do's and Don'ts
Don't Move Too Fast
If you’re started dating someone you really like, it might be temping to bring them to Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. But, that could also freak them out. I remember going out with someone just once and getting invited to a holiday dinner. It made me a little uncomfortable, because even if I liked that person, it seemed like a big jump. So, if you do want to invite that new love to a holiday family event, make sure to talk it over with them and give them the option to say no.
This young couple is totally surprised by moving too fast.
Don't Go Crazy on Gifts If You're in a New Relationship
If you’re in a newer relationship, resist the temptation to buy your new love too much for Christmas. “Oh, he’s a Packers fan! I’m going to buy all the Packers gear I can find!” Just don’t do it. It’s okay to give gifts, but keep it small if you haven’t been together long, or you might look insane.

Do Give Small, Meaningful Gifts
If you’re in a new relationship, you should get something for your new partner during the holidays. But, as mentioned above, don’t overdo it. A small, meaningful gift will likely be welcomed during the holidays and not scare your new love away.
This small gift is perfect for the holidays.
Don't Freak Out If You Don't See Your New Love As Much During the Holidays
Maybe you’re used to seeing your new love a few times a week. What if that’s just once a week, or less, during the holidays? Don’t freak out or start crying or anything. The holidays are a busy time for all, and that means schedules change.

Do Be on Good Behavior at Holiday Parties with Your New Love
You might get invited to some fun holiday parties or work parties by your new love, and you might want to invite them to yours. That’s fine and much less pressure than a family event. But, be on good behavior. Don’t try to be the life of the party or anything, as you might mortify your date. Sometimes, people like to overdo it in the early stages and try to really impress, but you really just need to be yourself when meeting new friends and chill out a bit.
