A winter storm for the ages brought a rare snow day to Tallahassee, shutting down the city and giving people a chance to throw snowballs and sled down a hill.

Streets and school bus stops were eerily quiet as Killearn and the rest of the northeast part of the city experienced a rare snowstorm.

Forecasters said it was too early to tell whether the ice and snow would approach or beat Tallahassee’s all-time snowfall record of 2.8 inches set in 1958.
