Does it Snow in Africa?
Monday September 14, 2009
My son recently asked me if it ever snows in Africa..
The answer is "yes, it does". In fact there are even a few small ski resorts in Morocco, courtesy of the Atlas Mountains. Tunisia and Algeria got snow-laden a few years ago during a particularly cold winter. Snow even fell in the Sahara desert in 1979, but it lasted just half an hour.
Heading further south, snow does fall (on higher elevations), even close to the equator. Regular snow fall has created ice-capped peaks (although most are fast disappearing) on Kenya's Mount Kenya, Tanzania's Mount Kilimanjaro and Uganda's Rwenzori Mountains . But it's not enough to ski. For that, you have to head all the way south.
South Africans can actually build snowmen somewhat regularly during the winter months (June - August) especially those living in the inland regions of the Eastern and Northern Cape provinces. Sutherland is considered to be the coldest town in South Africa with temperatures going well below freezing throughout the winter. There's a ski resort in the Drakensberg mountains, called Tiffindell....
Now I mentioned Ethopia...Sierra Leone...Ghana and Nigeria....
Correct me if I'm wrong Tevez but NONE of them appears in that summary!
HOIST BY ONES OWN PETARD!
p.s. Orioles: Happy New Year and if I'm wrong--KEEP STURM!!:)
