I'd guess somewhere in Texas. Areas of Texas at my latitude seem more likely to get snow than areas to my east.

Parts of south Texas had average annual snowfall of 0.1"+ according to this map (1961-1990 averages). https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/F...l_snowfall.jpg

Yes, the Sacramento mountains 60 miles north of El Paso; and quite a bit of snow.
The countries southernmost ski resort is located in Cloudcroft.

In the eastern US, draw a straight line from The northernmost point in Texas to the southernmost point in Maryland. Above that line there will be accumulating snow every year. Below that line, accumulation is not guaranteed every year. Out west, it all depends on elevation.

The panhandle of Texas all the way down to South of Lubbock sees accumulating snow every year. It doesn't stay for weeks at a time, but definitely sticks around for 3 days minimum

Isn’t Amarillo was the northernmost point in Texas ? I know the panhandle gets snow, rest of Texas does not see it often.

No, Amarillo is about 150 miles south of the Oklahoma border

Do you mean snow that stays on the ground more than 24 hours?
Or snow that melts in a few hours?
Heck, our city is right by a large river. While cities north and south of us get snow that stays around, we get none.

Certainly not the panhandle of Florida LOL.

I know the mountains peaks are out of scope but I have to add just for interest - on the main island of Hawaii is Mauna Kea at 14,000 feet and the climate is considered sub-arctic. It snows every year, sometimes in summer.
In the lower 48 you have the mountains of New Mexico and some ski resorts at the same latitude as south Georgia and Alabama. These aren't mountain peaks but well developed resort/recreation towns. They certainly get snow every year.
