Tony walks Dakota DogBARNES PLACE (ATLANTA, GA) -- When Barnes Place co-directors woke up Thursday morning, they had an eight-inch problem. The snow which had begun to fall at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, didn't putter out until 24 hours later when it had dumped eight inches of accumulation on Barnes Place. Some areas of Atlanta saw only four inches of snow, while others saw significantly more.

Most of Atlanta was closed for the day as the city began to thaw around the lunch hour. Tonight, most roads are clear, however the wet pavement is expected to freeze making Friday morning's rush hour difficult.

While tomorrow promises to bring sun and warmer temperatures, another moisture-loaded low pressure system is expected to move into the area on Sunday. This time, however, it's expecting to bring freezing rain.

Amazing eight-inch photos of of the snow have been posted on Barnes Place.com. Direct your browser to http://www.barnesplace.com/hobbies/photography/snow/.
