Great pictures. How often do you get snow?

Very rarely snows in Brazil. Only in the southern states of Brazil. For a few minutes. Newspapers say it was the worst blizzard in the last ten years. El Niño? Be prepared for a harsh winter in U.S.. Snow here in Brazil is cause for celebration. 99% of residents ( or a bit more ) have never seen snow.

Yeah, I never saw snow the entire year I spent in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. Of course, it never got below 70ºF (21ºC) while I was there. I did take a school trip to São Paulo, and it was about 40-45ºF for the 3 days I was there, so I just about froze to death, having only taken one sweatshirt.

And also be prepared for USA next summer. Lots of rain here in Brazil this summer. I think everything that happens in the Southern Hemisphere will replicate in the Northern Hemisphere. El Nino or La Nina?
