What other countries of the world have never received snow?
Can we put together a list?
Where's TESFanner?
He knows...
FANNER!!!!! Git yer maltese butt down here! We needs answers to this conundrum of meteorological interest pronto, or good people won't be able to sleep tonight!!
The closest thing we have to snow is the usual hale storm around September. We use it to make small "snowmen" in our balconies. We resort to doing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6F5WjMH3Ug when the stuff melts.
Then it's just scorching desert heat.
Thanks terpy
I forgets we has moar maltesers around here..
or is it malteesians?
Maltose??
"Maltins" is my personal favorite haha. You can call us "Maltese".
In Spain there is no snow either. Not in cities. But there is some in the highest mountains.
Here's some kind of http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Countries_receiving_snowfall.png, I'm not sure how reliable it is.
And here's a http://www.piste-off.com/world-snow-and-glacier-index.asp Keep in mind that it's not a list of countries with no snow, just with not enough snow for skiing. It might be a good reference point.
A lot of those countries have mountains where it is prone to snow.
It's not so surprising, you just need sufficiently high mountains. Uganda and Congo DR have Rwenzori Mountains if I remember correctly.
