Yep - - - atop Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa on The Big Island of Hawai'i - - - and not just in the depths of Winter - - - Altititude not Longitude & Latitude determines wether it snows or not - - - ditto for Mount Hauleakua on Maui - - - and Once within the decade there was an oh so slight chance of snow on O'ahu's highest peak but it didn't happen. When it does snow on Mauna Kea many locals try to go up to experience the snow but the park service often bars the way for safety reasons.
Also in Hawaii snow is the term used for shaved-ice in a cup doused with fruit syrup - - - so there is plenty snoiw all through Hawai'i - - Peace.

Yes Big Island almost every year, you can ski, but don't bring ur best skis, on Maui it's been sporadic, it used to snow every year in the '80's now not every year, but the sunrises at the top of the crater, Haleakala ( House of the Sun) are magnificent!

Mauna Kea & Mauna Loa on the Big Island get snow pretty much every year. Haleakala (House of the sun) on Maui can also get snow, but don't count on seeing it.
