I always assumed this was, while not common, at least a relatively well know meteorological term. Granted, it doesn't help that thundersnow is a rather rare event (The only true thundersnow we ever had around here in my lifetime was during the infamous Blizzard of '82), but is thundersnow really that unknown to the general public?
Inquiring minds want to know....

Of course, we don't get snow very often, so I'm not a very good one to gauge by, but I hadn't really heard of
the term at all. It was really funny yesterday when it thundered at the exact moment I had my camera out to
get proof it did snow on March 1, 2009.
The weather report this morning said it might even reach 80 by Saturday.
Woo hoo! Perfect weather for Natalie's wedding!!
