Hawaii snow captured in time-lapse footage

Parts of the US state of Hawaii have received a winter weather warning, with up to three feet (90cm) of snow over the past few days.

Weather experts say that it is not unusual for snow to fall in tropical Hawaii, but rarely has it fallen so heavily at such low altitudes.

It was heaviest around two of the island's highest peaks and the snowfall has been captured on on the Canada France Hawaii Telescope.
