Reuters. Residents of South Africa's biggest city Johannesburg were stunned by the first snowfall in more than a decade on Monday (July 10).
While parts of South Africa regularly receive snowfall over the southern hemisphere winter months around June to August, Johannesburg last saw snow in August 2012.
The South African Weather Service has issued warnings because of the cold front that has struck Gauteng province that contains Johannesburg and the capital Pretoria.
