Hi all.

South America has strange climate at some places. For example, Lima, Capital
of PerĂº, is at sea level, very near the Equator. In spite of that, its
temperature is such of an ever lasting spring, due to the Humboldt current.
It does not rain in Lima; usually it is cloudy, and frequently you may have
a slight drizzle, but it never rains. Well, actually not so: it rains about 
twice per century!!

Buenos Aires has a mild climate, much like Sydney, with moderately cold 
winters, but it never snows in Buenos Aires. Well, lets not exaggerate:
last time we got snow was in 1918, and this is the only known case during
historical times.

I live in Buenos Aires.

And TODAY it is snowing in Buenos Aires, after 89 years!!

Best regards to all.
