I think the first three years lnhammer was here ... up to right before you got here ... there was snow every year. I know for sure there were four snowfalls his first year here, which may have been a record.

I moved here knowing snow was not unknown here, though it tended to melt off by noon. And then, after all the early morning calls I received from lnhammer telling me about desert snow from afar ... I got here and waited well over a decade before the first time I got to see it actually sticking to the ground. :-)
