Last time it snowed in Jhb, 10 September 1981

 

 

Thought it was Sept 9th ...Wink Anyway what a ball we had, was busy writing matric prelims (Science I think) exam was canceled cause some "terrorist" phoned in a bomb scare and we were sent home - was on my Honda mtb fifty and had to ride home in all the snow and slush.

 

Enjoy the snow while you can...

 

 

I lived in Esctourt, KZN back then. Woke up on 1 September (Spring Day!) 1981 to snow! Phoned my Dad who lived in Benoni at the time to tell him the news! About a week later he phoned me to say it was snowing in Benoni! I was in Standard Four and we were given the day off school to play outdoors ? in the freezing cold. Yet on other winter days we were told to stay indoors. Weird...

Yip, it was great waking up to find the ground fully whiteBig%20smile

 

I don't mind riding up the bassonia hills (at my own pace anyway), it's coming back down that scares the living daylights out of me!!Geek

 

Hmmm, think I better start doing some of those hills again....Not in this weather thoughDead

If this is snow in the photos posted why isn't there any on the roads and pavements??? Methinks this is more like severe frost???!!!

 

They did say on the radio it isn't really snow but it sure sounded like it coming down last night...
