Record snowfall hits Australia

    Several cities in the east of Australia were under the thickest layer of snow in recent decades.

    This is reported by the Report, with reference to Reuters.

    As specified, up to 40 cm of snow fell in New South Wales over the weekend due to a cold air front. According to meteorologist from the Australian Weather Bureau Miriam Bradbury, this much has not fallen since the mid-1980s.

    According to the material, the weather anomaly also led to flooding, transport collapse and power outages in thousands of homes.
