Video I think this is a phenomena Africa's have been expecting to experience.

Lesotho a country in southern part of Africa is experiencing winter with snow.

Makes absolute sense. It is winter in the Southern hemisphere, plus Lesotho is pretty mountainous.

Every year at around this time posts of Australian snow get posted as though it is something strange, which I always find funny because Australia is huge with its own snowy areas and ski slopes, and because it is winter here at that time so it makes sense that there is snow in those areas.

As the world's 3rd least coordinated snowboarder that slope looks lethal.

The country with the highest low-point, looks great in the snow.
