Apparently the TSA will now allow "small" snow globes in your carryon if it appears to have 3.4 oz of liquid or less. The catch is that the snow globe must fit into your 3-1-1 bag. And you don't get a separate 3-1-1 bag for your snow globe and 1 for your other liquids. Here is the best quote from the article: "...TSA officers will be aware of the size requirement and apply “some discretion in their evaluation of the item being transported."" It will be interesting on how the "discretion" works.
