Snow flurry

A snow flurry from Buffalo City Hall

A snow flurry is a term for a light snowfall that results in little or no snow accumulation. The US National Weather Service specifically defines snow flurries as intermittent light snow that produces no measurable precipitation (trace amounts).[1] In contrast, bursts of snowfall which do result in measurable snow accumulation are called snow showers.[2]
