South Africa's biggest snowfall on record hit every province except Limpopo in August 2012: Image ChatGPTFourteen years ago this week, South Africa saw its most widespread snowfall in modern memory. On 7 August 2012, something happened that hadn’t occurred in generations: Snow fell in every South African province except Limpopo.

Do you remember where you were during South Africa’s 2012 snow event?
