Most places in the world have in recent times been experiencing strange weather conditions, a lot of them being attributed to global warming. These have resulted in floods, excessive heat or cold and various other phenomena. But how unusual is this weather when compared to it snowing in Miami! Mention Miami to anyone and their first impression is of long stretches of golden beaches and a sea that looks as clear as glass. However, Miami has seen snow twice in recorded memory. The first time was on January 19, 1977 and on January 9, 2010 trained observers in Miami-Dade and Broward counties spotted light falls of snow. Because of the small falls, most citizens could be excused for not even knowing about them.
