You can find articles and they say the snow only stayed for about a day or so, but I was curious about what how this might happen and if it was a good thing that it happened. I tried looking around the internet but I thought it was better to just ask for opinions.

I can't explain to you the science of how it happened, as I don't take that many science classes but I do believe that this is a sign of things to come.
Global warming, or global weird-ing as my teacher has called it, shows us that the climate of the Earth is rather quickly changing. Places that are known to be sandy and hot are getting snow and places that are known to be warm and humid and now dry and cold. Cold places are getting colder and warm places are getting warmer. The effects of Global Warming can be clearly seen, but vary from place to place.
I think the fact that things are changing and at the spend they are changing out, proves the not so good outcome in our future. At this rate, the frozen ice which makes up most of the water mass will start to unfreeze and before we know it, most of Earth will be submerged under water once again. But before we can all drown to death, I imagine that there would be some sort of food shortage as crops which you would normally grow in the summer are now experiencing winter like chills. So basically, if we allow things like global warming to continue I don't see a bright future for us.
Sorry for kinda rambling on and on about Global Warming. But I hope this gives you my opinion on the subject. Of course, the things I described would most likely happen within the next few thousand of years. So you, person who may or may not be reading this, have nothing to fear.
