It depends on what time scale you are asking.  Ever, being ever in the earths history?  I would think that it has rained at some point everywhere.  Or, rain being the liquid form of water.  If that being the case, it has probably never rained at the north and south polar regions.  It is too cold, and snows.

Snow in Sydney - 1836\n\nSnow in Sydney is extremely rare. Since European settlement, there have been a few cases recorded of blowing snowflakes, but only 4 occurrences of snow on the ground in any real quantity. All these cases occurred during the icy winter of 1836. \nT.A Browne (better known as Rolf Boldrewood, author of "Robbery Under Arms") kept weather observations during this period and noted that "the years 1836, 1837 and 1838 were years of drought, and in one of these years (1836) a remarkable thing happened. There was a fall of snow; we made snowballs at Enmore and enjoyed the usual schoolboy amusements therewith".\nThe Sydney Herald reported on the same incident headed "A Stranger"\n"For the first time in the memory of the oldest inhabitants, snow fell in Sydney on the morning of Tuesday last. (27 June 1836)\nAbout 7 O’clock in the morning, a drifting fall covered the streets nearly one inch in depth. Some of the "old hands" expressed a hope that their old acquaintances Messrs. Frost and Snow do not intend emigrating to NSW".\n\n  this record is not up to date because it has snowed in Sydney 1n the 1960s

Snow did fall in Homestead, Fla., only about 25 miles north of the bridge from the Florida mainland to the Keys, on Jan. 19, 1977. This was during one of the worst of the mid-1970s U.S. cold waves and snow fell that day in several parts of Dade County, Fla., but not at the NWS office at the Miami Airport, which is why the official records do not show the snow.\n\nRead about "Miami's first snowfall" here:\nhttp://www.islandnet.com/%7Esee/weather/almanac/arc2002/alm02jan.htm\n\nJacksonville, in northeastern Florida, actually had a white Christmas in 1989. Here is an article about it:\nhttp://www.news4jax.com/weather/2683348/detail.html

Not in AZ, but I've been to the Oregon Vortex, near Medford OR.  Very bizarre.

Our snow usually lasts only a few days at most. Last year, we had snow the first week of December and then again in early March - that was it. I'm a bit south of Redmond, out toward Maple Valley, and we just had about 30 minutes of thundersnow (thunder and lightning, while snowing), very cool!\n\nA few years back we had an ice storm, that was nasty. But it's only happened that once in the 10 years I've lived in the area.

just a superstition.\n\nhow would it be possible; somewhere ealse nearby - a higher elevatino or a bit to the north - will invariably have had snow before you (thus your snow wasn't "first" of the season).

Yes,it is a fact that it is cold at the poles where it practically snows all the time,but in the US temperatures don't drop that low.\nPeople say that-"it is too cold to snow" , because in this case the temperature is too low(for our geographical positioning) to "hold" water in the air which prevents it from snowing.\nHope that my answer has been useful!

Yes it cdan be too cold to snow. \n\nThe driest spot on the face of the earth is NOT the Atacama desert, it is the South Pole. From the reference here are figures of mm. of precipitable water vapor in the air measured in 1995:\n\nSouth Pole \nPercentile, Winter  & Summer \n\n25%, .19    .34\n50%, .25    .47\n75%, .32    .67\n\nAtacama\nPercentile, Winter & Summer\n\n25%, .68 1.1\n50%,  1.0 2.0\n75%,  1.6 3.7\n\nThe Atacama is so dry that there are some places in the Atacam where it has never been any measurable rain recorded, in over 100 years of measurements. Yet, the driest season in the Atacama still has considerably more precipitable water vapor in the air than the most humid season at the South Pole.  \n\nSo the answer is, yes it can be so cold that there is no moisture in the air, so it cannot snow.

My husband and I lived in Mesa, Az. which is a working class suburb outside of phoenix.  We had one child at the time and we really loved it.  Good schools, yes.  But, I would go to Portland.  I think it will be nice to have abetter experience of the seasons with children. In AZ you need a car and HAVE to drive everywhere- no good mass transit.  In Portland it is much easier to get around.  The air is much better in portland (in my opinoin anyway) and there is alot of racism in Arizona.  That was our experience.  But both good places.  Good Luck!
