Dave, that's actually GOLD colored snow, the GREEN is on the way 
straight from Green Bay ;-)

Since you're looking for a serious answer, I'll skip the Frank Zappa 
references and just say it was due to something in the air (tip of the 
hat to Thunderclap Newman)     Probably just dust.   At least it wasn't 
stinky like what they had in Siberia a few years ago:

Still, don't eat it.
