South America, June 28, 2009 - Heavy snowfall in South America

SkiInfo - Heavy snowfall in South America, reportedly measuring over two metres at some resorts, has led to most of the continents 30 or so ski areas in Argentina and Chile opening over the past week.

Las Lenas in Argentina has reported over seven feet (two metres) of snow on upper slopes and Portillo in Chile says it has 145cm (just under five feet) of snow on upper slopes and 70cm (28 inches) in resort.
