Freak Snow in Buenos Aires
On Wednesday, snow fell in the Argentine capital Buenos Aires for the first time since 1918. Argentina's National Weather Service said it was the first major snow in Buenos Aires since June 22, 1918, though sleet and freezing rain have been periodically reported in the decades since. Buenos Aires recorded its first snowfall in more than 30 years, threatening to exacerbate an energy shortage in the country that has forced the government to reduce electricity and natural gas supplies to businesses.
