Snowy Lloret

 Well it was forecast! and here we have the first photos of the snow taken from our balcony this morning (2-2-12) It doesn't look as though the beach is covered, but if it continues to snow I'll have a walk out and get more photos later.

Lloret de Mar Weather - February

A weather warning is in place for all of Catalonia.

March 2010

It looks as though we are facing a sharp drop in temperatures from today, with snow being forecast in the region even at sea level! The cold snap is forecast for it to carry on until at least Sunday, and warnings are been given out for everyone to be well prepared by stocking up with essential items at home and to ensure heating appliances are in good working order.
The worst weather seen in Lloret was 2 years ago when heavy snow brought electricity pylons and phone lines down, leaving thousands of people without power, phones and in some cases water for almost a week!
Lets hope there's no repeat of the chaos which occurred then...
Check out the photos from 8th March 2010 here > SNOW IN LLORET DE MAR
