Mauna Loa Snow
OK, we’re going a little out of order here, but let’s end on a fun one. While at least parts of the western U.S. have since caught up on snow since early December, things were pretty dry at the time that a major storm hit Hawaii with cold enough temperatures to coat the Big Island’s volcanoes in snow. Mauna Loa sported a frosty white top after the storm passed. While not as rare as, say, the wind storm that hit the Lower 48, it will never not be weird to see snow in the tropics.
