In the midst of a particularly warm Saturday afternoon, children young and old were playing in an unusual form of Florida precipitation: snow.

Some kids dressed the part and were decked out in beanies and gloves. Others were a little more realistic and braved the snow in swim trunks. All participated in their own versions of a snowball fight. 

Among the inflatables and Christmas games at Salty Church's annual Christmas at Rockefeller Gardens event, a popular attraction was the 75-foot snow slide where everyone took a turn going down on an intertube.

One little girl caught some air, and all left smiling.
