"Thunder Snow" by Steve Adams

"Thunder Snow" by Steve AdamsOur region is getting pummeled with Winter weather today.  My friend is a meteorologist and we were talking about the storm when he mentioned "Thunder Snow."My first experience with this occurred in the 1980’s.  I had been feeding hay to the cattle and it was snowing heavily.  We always let the cows in the barnyard in bad weather, so the actual feeding was not a challenge, but getting to and from the barn was.Being the typical teen, I finished my task, gathered my sled and headed out for some fun.  With about 2 feet of snow and no packed trail, the sledding was not successful, so I put that away and was standing on the barn bridge in total frustration.The snow was surrounding me as it fell and the world was near silent save the pitter patter of the flakes.  In a flash, the snow lit up bright purple and a nearly instant clash of thunder shook me.  I knew enough to realize that it had been close, so, in a fast pace, I took off to the house for clean clothes!Sponsored by the Caylor Group Wealth Management in Lynchburg, Virginia.Support the show#Political/Conservative/Judeo/Christian/Constitutional
