Murree Special Snowfall Winter Advisory :)

Its December. Lot of People are asking about the Snowfall in Murree as the winter vacations are coming near.

So For all of them Our Advice is Don't waste your trip in December. There are few chances on 21st-22nd December of Light Snowfall(at max 4-5 inches). But It's no way near to real taste of Murree's Snowfall.

If you really want to enjoy some Good Snowfall(more than 1ft) then you should wait for atleast 2-3 weeks more. There are two to three Good Spells expected in January.

In February too, Some Records of Snowfall are expected to be Broken.

So Be Calm and Plan your trip accordingly :)

Egyptian Pyramids under Snow. Global Cooling or Warming?

The snow that has blanketed much of the Middle East turned Cairo white on Friday – with local news reports claiming it was Egypt’s capital’s first snowfall in 112 years.

The city averages less than an inch of rain each year, and hundreds stopped their walk to work or school to snap pictures of the falling flakes, tweeting their delights.

Snow in Egypt…    How bizarre.  Doesnt happen often as you can see.  There probably isnt anyone alive from the last time it happened. Global cooling is probably more accurate no?
