The white stuff is softer than hail, but not quite snow.
"A lot of us across the Valley I know saw it. people were kind of getting confused between hail and snow. It's kind of the middle ground between the two, explained Action News Meteorologist Madeline Evans.
"It's a snowflake when it's falling. Then, it kind of hits this layer of raindrops that are falling that are really really cold. So, the temperature of the raindrops are usually right around below 32 degrees," she added. "So, that actually attaches onto the snowflake and kind of creates graupel."

While the Valley didn't see actual snowfall this time around, it's still possible during the next round of wetter winter weather.
"For anyone who does want to see snow in the Valley floor, we have that potential for the next two days," said Evans.
