Early Season Snowfall on Sunday
From the Rocky Mountains to the Great Plains to the Upper Midwest, many saw their first snowfall of the season on Sunday. In many cities, this was way ahead of schedule. But an autumn snowfall can be beautiful….and that was indeed the case!

The heaviest snowfall occurred in the mountains and higher elevations of Wyoming, Colorado, and New Mexico. However, a few inches of snow also coated the ground in states such as Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.

Even parts of the Texas Panhandle picked up a trace of snow!
It's official, tiny ice crystals, or "snow grains" are falling at NWS Amarillo. Here is a slow motion video from outside our front door (make picture as big as possible, as the crystals are small and might be hard to see). #phwx #txwx #okwx pic.twitter.com/ag6AcPusjl
