First significant snowfall
of season blankets Penn State

December 5, 2002

The calendar may say the start of winter is still more than two weeks away, but people at Penn State's University Park campus awoke to a wonderland of white this morning. Approximately 7-9 inches of snow are forecast to fall on campus through Thursday, with some other Penn State locations -- particularly in the southern and eastern parts of the Commonwealth -- expecting nearly a foot of the white stuff.

Although the early season winter storm causes headaches for commuters and those with sidewalks to shovel, it also creates some picturesque images of winter splendor at University Park -- as well as the occasional impromptu snowball fight.
