Summer is just around the corner, yet it’s snowing ACROSS Europe.

It snowed in the Dutch province of Brabant yesterday, May 7.

In fact, heavy thundersnow was reported: “A unique combination in May,” reads a recent weer.nl article.

Holland’s cold spell, which has been going on for almost two months now, has been severe.

The nation as a whole just suffered its coldest April since 1986 (solar minimum of cycle 21) — average temps finished some 3.2C below the climatological norm of 9.9C.

April’s historic chill also delivered a total of 10 snow days, which made for the most snow recorded in the Netherlands in April since 1977 (solar minimum of cycle 20).

And the snow has continued into May, too — an incredibly rare phenomenon.
