To see the most snow, go to Buffalo NY.

If you want to see beautiful snowy mountain scenes - upstate Vermont, Colorado high country, Mt Rainer in Washington state, Lake Tahoe, CA - come to mind.

You can get snow almost anywhere - I've been in Houston when it snowed. Most southern regions will get a dusting of snow, that will melt within 12-24 hours of falling.

To see snow that sticks around for awhile - upstate NY.

i live just north of new orleans and it snows here maybe once every 5 or 6 years.. but when it does snow, it's only like an inch or so. it generally won't snow more than once in any given 5-6 year time span.

It doesn't really have much to do with latitude. For example, I live in San Francisco and it never gets cold enough here, but I know they've seen snow in north Texas, and anywhere there's mountains, regardless of how far north/south.

You have to be in the mountains, away from the coast for the best chance to see snow in the mountains. There are ski resorts in North Carolina. It does occasionally snow in Atlanta.

Snow normally starts around Halloween in northern New England in mid-late November as you work down through the Mid-Atlantic. In the south, it usually doesn't snow until December or January.

I've heard northern Florida get snow sometimes.

I believe it does snow at the tip of Texas, but I'm not absolutely sure. In Virginia it does snow usually every year, so I imagine that North Carolina would have a bit of snow.
