Who says it doesn't snow in St. George, Utah? Well, me...that's who. I am always correcting my friends and family from out of state when they tell me they could never live in SNOW! "It NEVER snows in St. George!" That's my reply. Well here I am with wet feet (I do not own snow shoes...I live in St George) having to make a public apology to everyone I have debated the subject with. It DID snow in St George. Last night created a beautiful winter wonderland for the City of St George Utah. We all awoke with icy driveways and walk ways.
They Don't Call it "Snow Canyon" for Nothing! 
I have to say, it's the most beautiful time I have been wrong. It actually does snow in St. George; usually we receive 1 or 2 dustings per year. Normally, when it falls, it only sticks to elevated surfaces (grass, cars, bushes etc...) and usually melts with in an hour or so. Not today however! This will go down in the books for one of our more heavy snow falls. It's sunny and beautiful out now, and already the snow is melting. By this afternoon I expect most of it around the city will be gone. Many photographers were out today capturing the beauty.
Many locals were late to work or appointments, due to the snow. However, the spirit of St. George was in full force, we were able to witness one man assisting motorists that became disabled in the icy conditions. He had a 4-wheel drive and was able to lend a hand to many in need. This is the reason I moved here, the sense of community pride runs strong every day. To offer assistance, unsolicited, it's an amazing city.
I only hope that there were not too many perspective real estate buyers visiting from out of town!
If you have any desire to live "snow free" consider St. George. Although I can no longer claim "we never get snow" I can tell you that when we do, it is the most beautiful (and short lived) experience you can witness.
