Craziest shit i've ever seen though... thundersnow.
Late-season ride, heading back to the trailhead in the afternoon. Storm started moving in, wind kicked up, spit a little bit of snow, little bit of graupel... flash off to my 4-oclock, then ... the sky "growled".
Snow absorbs the sound of thunder so when you're in a thundersnow-storm it's very localized, there may be a storm a mile or two away but you'll never hear it.
Needless to say, we picked up the pace after that.
