Snow and thunder/lightening???

[texasred777]

Only once have it heard thunder while snowing. I was living in Waco, Texas. I believe it was New Years Eve of 1981. I looked out and saw the snow coming down. Later, that night I heard the thunder and could see flashes of lightening through the curtains on the window. The next morning, I took a 'yard stick', a 3 foot ruler, and measured from 11" to 13" in the back yard.

On the weather channel they just mentioned the chance for thunder snow in the midwest, during this next storm, Linus.
