LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Parts of the Las Vegas valley are experiencing snow and graupel, the Dippin’ Dots-like winter precipitation that forms when moisture freezes on snowflakes.
13 Action News viewer J sent over some photos of snow and graupel falling at the Orleans hotel-casino around 2:30 p.m.
A 30% chance of passing snow showers continues in the valley through the early evening. It's not enough to stick to the ground, though.
