It’s a blustery day, as has been forecast all this week. It’s windy with showers, and the snow level is expected to get down to 3,000 feet or so (I’m at about 2400 ft). A few minutes ago I went outside and was surprised to see rain, snow, and hail all coming down at the same time! This is something I’ve never seen or heard of before, although I’m sure it’s not the first time it’s ever happened.
So what do you call that? Anyone know if there’s a term for this? Any amateur (or professional) meteorologists or climatologists out there who want to enlighten me?

It’s called Global Warming ; ) Listen, the snow blew through a track of homes here, in Rosamond, that looked so bizarre. It happened to a subdivision about 2 blocks away — as the snow blew hard between the homes, I could have sworn it was smoke and the houses were in fire….instead, it was snow! Welcome to the desert…. By the way, I told everyone here that it was heading your way and we should have called. You get all the cool weather : (
