3. Cold Clouds
HOBART, Australia - Some of the coldest temperatures on Earth brought a rare cloud formation to the skies over Antarctica, scientists said Tuesday. Meteorological officer Renae Baker captured spectacular images of the nacreous clouds, also known as polar stratospheric clouds, last week at Australia's Mawson station in Antarctica.
The clouds only occur at high polar latitudes in winter, requiring temperatures less than minus 176 degrees Fahrenheit. A weather balloon measured temperatures at minus 189 degrees Fahrenheit on the day the photos were taken.

Cold front brings South Africa snow
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, Aug. 3 (UPI) -- A rare cold front has brought Johannesburg and other regions in South Africa their first snowfall since 1988. The snow, which only lasted about an hour, did not cause any accumulation on the ground, the Johannesburg News Agency reported Thursday. "This is by all means rare," said Kevin Rae, assistant manager of forecasting at the South Africa Weather Service. He said the snow, which was also reported in Carltonville, Westonaria and Soweto, followed similar occurrences at the same time of year in 1981 and 1988. Rae said the cold front, brought by high winds Tuesday, teamed with "moisture and instability" in the air to create the light flakes that sprinkled down on the cities. The lowest temperature recorded during the snow was about 34 degrees. The weather service said additional snowfalls are expected over the "eastern high grounds of the Western Cape, Lesotho, southern Drakensberg as well as the Eastern Cape high ground where it will be heavy in places."
