My mum used to recollect experiencing snow in June in the 1950s, so I guess odd snowfalls aren't unknown, but the pattern's changing. We used to get snow in late December, early January, now it hangs around for weeks and months.
Evidently, it's all to do with the fickle mood swings of the jetstream. It's very unpredictible these days, so we get weird 'freak' (yeah, right!) weather.
Unfortunately, it makes the great unwashed say 'no such thing as global warming then.'

Snow in November is weird. Very, very weird.
