Believe it or not it has snowed in my area before. Nothing that stayed on the ground, but big flakes were coming down. You should have seen all the students at my school, as well as the staff, get all excited and go by the door. The kids just wanted to stand in it outside at lunch. I was the only one I think that wasn't in the least excited. I guess if you've lived in it as many years as I did, the thrill is gone.....believe me.
Btw, after the 24 years in California, I have never had any desire to go to the mountains in the winter, or snow skiing...anywhere near snow.
