Snow in all 50 states? Let's prove it!

[Kiel Ortega]

Via Patrick Marsh:

If snow falls in Florida tomorrow (and accumulates), there will be snow on the ground in all 50 states of the United States. I'm hoping to put together photos from all 50 states showing the snow on the ground. So...

Friday, 12 February 2010, between Noon and Midnight, please take a picture of any snow on the ground and email it to

[email protected]

Be sure to include where the photo was taken and I'll put together a slideshow of all the snow shots from all 50 states!

Ummm, snow in Hawaii?

Sometimes there is snow on top of Mauna loa but i dont see any in the webcams right now. The freezing level is just about at the summit...


Edit: the snow on a webcam from mauna kea is outdated. The current images also show nothing but dry ground.

Here is a link to the Mauna Kea Weather Center's webcams.
It currently looks dry there too.

Edit: I guess it would help if I put the link on there... DOH!

There has been snow in the recent past on the tops of the mountains (they recently verified a blizzard warning). The webcam image was a bit misleading, but we still have hope that there is snow around in the shaded areas.

Even if there isn't snow in Hawaii, getting snow in 49 of the 50 states is still quite a feat. Snow is much more rare in Florida than it is in Hawaii.

Even the Drudge Report this morning had a headline linking to an article written about Marsh and the collecting of pictures from all 50 states.

We could always ship some of the extra snow to highway. We certainly are having a hard time finding places to put all our snow.

I was watching CNN this morning, and they mentioned somthing about it too.

Today, February 12, 49 of the 50 states according to NBC news has measurable snow. What a winter this has been.
