    Lots of the US gets a lot of snow, every year.  There are even rare instances, every few years or so, where there is snow on the ground in all fifty states at the same time.  Even Hawaii, up on the mountains.

    63 years and counting up here in the snowy northeast.  It starts as early as end of October (though usually not until mid/late November for the first good snowfalls, and occasionally we can get to New Year's Day without snow on the ground even if it has snowed a bit in the preceding weeks but not stayed).

    probably the least snowy year I can remember was 1980, the year that the Winter Olympics were held in Lake Placid NY.  The weather took a bad year to be mild.

    Yeah, it snows. And snows, and snows.

    No.  It never snows in the USA.  Everybody knows that.

    States not far from Canada?  It snows in TEXAS.  That's a distance from Canada.  So, yes, it snows in most States in the USA.

    Depends which area you’re talking about. High up in the Rocky Mountains it s snows almost all year. It rarely ever snows in southern Florida or Southern California. The northern states that border Canada get snow every winter. I live in South Dakota and this photo was taken in March 2019
