Argentina's capital, Buenos Aires, has seen snow for the first time in 89 years, as a cold snap continues to grip several South American nations. Temperatures plunged to -22C (-8F) in parts of Argentina's province of Rio Negro, while snow fell on Buenos Aires for several hours on Monday. Two deaths from exposure were reported in Argentina and one in Chile.
In Bolivia, heavy snowfall blocked the nation's main motorway and forced the closure of several airports.
In Argentina, several provinces in the Andes have been placed under a storm alert, according to the national weather centre.
But thousands of people cheered in the streets of Buenos Aires at the sight of the capital's first snowfall since 1918.
"Despite all my years, this is the first time I've ever seen snow in Buenos Aires," 82-year-old Juana Benitez was quoted as saying by the Associated Press news agency.

This is so funny. I was going to comment that I wonder if they blamed the snowfall 89 years ago on global warming.
Good point Tony.
Liberals weren't quite so obviously loony back then. They were more interested in openly promoting Communism. Environmentalism is just one of the latest ways for them to disguise their goals.
Interesting that a lot of their world view and goals are the same as Stalin's, Castro's, Pol Pot's, Mao Zedong's, Ahmadinejad's, Chávez's, Al-Qaeda's et all.
