This rare phenomenon, sometimes called a winter thunderstorm, occurs when a wave cyclone experiences strong upward motion. Freezing temperatures cause snow to fall as the primary precipitation, often leading to thundersnow, lightning and other dramatic meteorological events.

Thunder on mountains and snowfall on treetops,
Hot glowing embers and all road traffic stops,
Puffy down jackets were put away for Spring,
Rare occurring storms are my favorite thing.
With apologies to Rodgers and Hammerstein
