Usually described as a light, late snowfall at winter's end. “*Onion snow*” is a term particular to the state of Pennsylvania originated by the Pennsylvania Dutch culture and language, and refers to a snowfall that occurs after the spring *onions* have been planted, and comes right as they are sprouting.
