Greetings, iam Ann Bailey, I hope today is better than yesterday.
Whoa, can you believe it? Snow in Africa! It’s true - snowed Africa recently and it was a sight to behold. I mean, who would’ve thought? It’s not something you hear about every day. But there it was - a winter wonderland in the middle of the African continent! People were amazed and couldn’t believe their eyes. It was like something out of a dream. Talk about an unexpected surprise!
Has It Ever Snowed In Africa? [Solved]
Wow! Talk about a contrast - while Europe is sweltering, folks in Lesotho are skiing! This tiny mountain kingdom, which is actually an enclave within South Africa, has the unique distinction of being the only country where no point is lower than a thousand metres above sea level. That means snow - and lots of it!
- Snowfall in Africa is a rare occurrence, but it does happen.
- The most common areas to experience snowfall in Africa are the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, the Drakensberg Mountains of South Africa, and Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania.
- Snowfall is usually limited to higher elevations and can occur anytime between June and September.
- Snowfall can cause disruption to transportation networks due to icy roads and blocked mountain passes, as well as power outages due to heavy snow accumulation on power lines.
- Snowfall also brings a unique beauty to the African landscape that is rarely seen elsewhere in the world!
Wow, it snowed in Africa! That’s so crazy - I never would’ve thought that could happen. It’s definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience for those who got to see it. Can you imagine? Snow in Africa! Who’d have thunk it?
