the day (night) it kinda snowed in berkeley

It was the Friday night right before spring break in Berkeley . Most students have gone home for spring break, and they didn't know what they were missing out on.

It was pouring cats and dogs, and sometime during the night, it turned into a thunderstorm coupled with hail. Now while this was rare in Berkeley, it had happened before. A few hours later, we found out there was white stuff lining the grass and paths, ie. it was kinda snowing sometime during all that rain!!

Interestingly, this is supposed to be spring, but it's raining and is really cold, and it's more like winter weather than spring. why is it the seasons are always late in berkeley???

Snow lining the grass at my dorm.

Actually, the "snow" was more like "chunks of ice that came from hail", but still, it kinda looks like snow.

p.s. If you want to see more "snow" photos, go to my facebook page and look for the photo album with the same title as this blog post ^^
