This week's powerful storms have left many people stranded in snow and drenched in the rain but what's this "graupel" term everyone keeps mentioning? READ MORE: abc7.la/3Y7146g

If it is the styrofoam looking snow we've always called it Snow-Pellets in the Intermountainwest. I only first heard graupel a couple years ago.

@Max Power Yeah I don't doubt it. I just think it's regional as I've also heard people call it "Hominy Snow" which gave me a chuckle. I find a lot of things are very regional. One example, I am originally from the valley and we always used the word "Snowmobile" which is usually how they say it on the news here in Utah but locally you hear many people say "Snow Machine" and many hunters simply call them "sleds". I personally kind of like adding to my vocabulary when possible and since I love meteorology, I kind of made it my goal to use the word Graupel from time to time.... providing I actually understand what it is. LoL

Graupel in the mountains gives Ski Patrol a field day to say the least. Acts like ball bearings to any layers of snow that may fall on top; the result is *major* avalanche risk. Anyone in Big Bear have any explosives? Going to need them.

Regular people don’t use them. Usually people who want to feel smart use them because they’re compensating for their lack of intelligence.
