Snapshots of RVA: Winter Snow

The snow that fell in Richmond during the 2014-2015 winter season was the first snow I ever saw in my life. Having grown up in Miami and lived in Florida my whole life up until I moved here, I was never exposed to it before — and it did live up to what I pictured it to be. We had about three major snowfalls in central Virginia in February 2015, the first of which included 6-8 inches of snow. Everything was covered in snow for days during that snowfall, and some of the pictures in this gallery are from that snowfall. We had two others after that, but none were as major as that first one. Snow does lose its charm after two or three days, unfortunately, when it starts becoming dirty. The first day of it, though, is quite magical.
