Yes, during the frigid winter of a few years ago, when numerous queen palms succumbed and we could hardly play golf until the end of March, I woke up one day in December to find white pellets on roofs and on the ground. My father-in-law proclaimed "it is NOT snow, it doesn't snow in Florida" but it looked and felt like snow to me and I definitely remember a photo in The Sun of the tiniest snowman I have ever seen, perhaps 5"tall.
Love it. A five inch snowman.
