The Great Philly Snowpocalypse of... Wait, What?
Did you wake up yesterday (July 2nd, to be precise) expecting a winter wonderland outside your window? If you live in Philadelphia, you might be scratching your head and wondering the same thing. Because let's face it, snow in Philly in July is about as likely as finding a cheesesteak with tofu (although, hey, maybe that's the next big food trend?).
So, how much of this bizarre, out-of-season flurry did we actually get? Buckle up, folks, because the answer depends entirely on where you were standing.

A Tale of Two Cities (or Rather, Snow Amounts)
The Great Snowzilla of the Suburbs: Apparently, Mother Nature decided to dump a surprise on our suburban friends. We're talking 3-5 inches of the white stuff in some areas! Imagine the look on your neighbor's face as they fired up the grill for their Fourth of July cookout, only to be greeted by a mini-blizzard.
QuickTip: Stop scrolling if you find value.
The Philly Phreeze-Out (That Never Came): Meanwhile, in the heart of the city, things were a bit...meh. We received a measly dusting, with some reports suggesting as little as a sprinkle. Seriously, if you built a snowman out there, it would have melted faster than a snowball in a hot toddy.
The Moral of the Story? Don't trust the weatherman (or woman)! They said snow, we got a shrug from Mother Nature. But hey, at least we can all say we experienced a July snowstorm in Philadelphia. Now that's a story for the grandkids!
QuickTip: Reflect before moving to the next part.
