It is winter down south of the equator, so snow there during their winter/our summer is not that rare.
Records are being broken on both ends of the extreme.

Are you South African? If you are, or have lived here you would know very well it is rare for Johannesburg to get snow as we are having now. And to follow the main reason of the topic, to have snow in all of our Provinces in one day has never happened, ever. That is why i started this thread. To state that a weather record for South Africa has been broken.

We broke a bunch of rainfall records in my area last year, yet I didn't start a thread about it.
We also broke a few records for cold and snow.
And by my research it has snowed at least 22 times in SA, I wouldn't call that rare.
Unusual, but not rare.

I started a thread cos i wanted to share something that HAS NEVER happened in South Africa. It snowed 22 times in South Africa, or Johannesburg? In my almost 40 years in Johannesburg i have seen snow, including today, only 4 times.
