We are in North East Arizona and currently have thunder snow; I've never seen that before!

I live in Illinois and we have had it a few times.  It is definitely eerie.........

 

Right now, we are bitterly cold and the wood in my outdoor deck is sometimes creaking quite loudly!

Is that where it snows and thunders at the same time? I've never heard of that before.

I have lived where that occurred.  It's not the usual happening. Snow and cold weather, nonetheless.

I'm in St. Louis and will never forget the thunder snow storm we had in 1982...something like 15 inches! Everything was buried! Hope you don't get that extreme!

At 70 yrs young, I've only seen/heard thunder snow once during a once in a lifetime snow blizzard.  It was the year So. Joisey got 2 1/2 feet of snow in 24 hrs. Smiley Surprised faint.gif

 

EDIT:  It was 1996

@patbz.  We had it in the Albuquerque area about 6:30pm along with rain but I didn't have either at my house.  It preceeded the cold front.  I'd love some rain.

I'm originally from Chicago, and it is not uncommon there.......     Also rain showers happen while the sun is shining.

Thunder snow!  Big Fat flakes coming down like the Dickens AND thunder!  It's odd, but I could swear the lightning flash has a tinge of PINK.  Enjoy the show and have a safe clean up after!
