What February feels like

The Japanese magnolias start blooming in February and get frozen off about every other year, which is a reliable local heartbreak. It is the cheapest month for hotels downtown, and the Beltline is walkable without competing with anybody.

Expect about 7 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. The air runs dry — whatever the thermometer says, it wears easy. about 8 nights dip below freezing.
