Snow in Spring!

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

Something funny happend this morning,  we have had a strange Noruz holiday this year. One day was so cold, one day was so warm, and today a close friend called in the morning and told me to look out of the window, believe me, we had not such a snow the whole winter!  it snowed and snowed and I guess whitened all the mountains around Tehran and now a few hours later, there is nothing at least in our part of the city you could call snow.  Of course it is still cold, so maybe it snows again tonight.

Overall, it is really strange in this time of year in Tehran to snow.  Not that Tehran is a warm city, but we have had quite some not so cold winters in the past few years.

Cheers,

Paymaan.
