when was the last time it snowed in miami
Cold wave of January 1977 The Cold wave of January 1977 produced the only known trace of snow in the greater Miami area of Florida ever reported (though no snow was reported in the city of Miami). It occurred following the passage of a strong cold front, in combination with a high-pressure area situated over the Mississippi River Valley. As a result, cold air spewed across Florida, causing both snow flurries and record low temperatures. Most notably, the weather system brought snow flurries as far south as Homestead on January 19. Although other portions of the state have since experienced snowfall, no snow had ever been reported in south Florida before or since.[citation needed] Damage was most significant to agriculture, as major losses occurred to Citrus fruits and tender vegetables. Statewide, agricultural damage from the cold wave totaled to $350 million (1977 USD), and losses overall totaled to $2 billion (1977 USD). One fatality occurred due to an automobile accident in Central Florida, which was related to the cold wave.
Climate of New Zealand Snow falls in New Zealand's South Island and at higher altitudes in the North Island. It is extremely rare at sea level in the North Island. It is also extremely rare in Auckland and Wellington with one snowfall each in 2011 after nearly 40 years where none occurred.[4] Snow is more common inland in both main islands, though snow to sea level does occur on average once or twice per year in the central and southern South Island.
