Hawaii has seen some of its first significant snowfall of winter 23-24. About five inches (12cm) of snow was reported at the top of Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa on Hawaii’s Big Island. The snow was delivered by a “Kona low,”  subtropical cyclone, commonly in November. Although its not widely known, snowfall is fairly common on Mauna Kea (4,207m / 13,803 ft), a dormant volcano which is actually the world’s tallest mountain, taller than Everest, but with about three-fifths of its 9,330 m (30,610 ft) height is below sea level under the Pacific. The top of the mountain can receive 2-3 feet (60-90cm) of snowfall in major storms, which can last for weeks and months or thaw away again very
