YES, snow in Las Vegas. I have lived here since 71 and this is the third real snow that has actually stuck and made the ground white. The picture is about half of what we ended up with. We get flurries in January quite often but they melt as soon as they touch the ground. Las Vegas sits in the middle of mountain ranges. So when the winds start to blow through the ranges they pick up the snow flakes and they come into the valley. Its usually not cold enough to sustain the snow. But we get some weird days such as the one below and it sticks. By 2 that afternoon it was all gone and the following day it was in the high 60's again.

See you all on tomorrows thread. Good night
