that the only state in the United States which doesn't have at least one area with a dusting of snow today is Hawaii. According to the person from the National Weather Service who was being interviewed, this is very rare.
Lucky us.
49 of 50 states have snow
February 12, 2010
Washington (AP) — Forty-nine states have snow on the ground now, from the Gulf Coast's Redneck Riviera to the skyscrapers of Dallas.
The lone holdout? Hawaii.
Although snow falls every winter on Hawaii's two tallest volcanoes, the National Weather Service in Honolulu said there was no snow in the state Friday.
Snow has even fallen in the Florida Panhandle and along the South Carolina coast. However, snow has been lighter than usual in New England. Forecasters say El Nino has driven many of this year's storms southward.
Weather service meteorologist Brian Korty says it's extremely rare to have so many states with snow.
