Snow in 1932 in San Jose
Yes, Virginia, it CAN snow in San Jose!
Did you recognize Saint James Park under snow? This photograph was taken in 1932 after San José’s heaviest snowfall in fifty years. The San Jose Evening News reported snowball fights in a cactus field; a dusting of snow on the annual Fiesta de las Rosas Parade; and a run on film by residents wanting to photograph the winter wonderland. This is just one of more than 75,000 images that HSJ cares for in the Research Library and Archive. [Reposted from History San Jose]
