It Just Snowed in 49 States

Throughout last night and early today, it snowed in 49 states. As one can see from the map above, which is shaded for depth, Florida was the lone state that didn’t receive any snow, winning the blizzard. Even Hawaii had a bit of snow, which fell on the Mauna Kea volcano on the Big Island. About 69% of the contiguous United States was covered in snow, and 32 states had weather advisory warnings. Basically, it snowed everywhere in the US except for Florida, which, being from south Florida, I shall gladly accept the award on the state’s behalf.
