Parts of southern Queensland, Australia were blanketed by snow Thursday and Friday in what was considered by some the region's most significant snowfall in three decades.
Up to eight centimeters – roughly three inches – of snow were reported in the far south of Queensland, near the border of New South Wales, according to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BoM).Children were seen enjoying the rare treat of throwing snowballs in the town of Stanthorpe, about 215 kilometers southwest of the Queensland coastal capital of Brisbane, according to Network Ten.
BoM senior meteorologist Sam Campbell told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation that, other than a five-centimeter snowfall in 2007, this may have been the state's biggest snowfall since 1984.
