Hello, today I want to tell you about snowstorms.
Many of the worst snowtorms in world history hit unexpectedly. When mild temperatures suddenly gave way to high winds and massive snowfall, citizens were left ill-prepared to cope with conditions.
The most destructive of these storms often caused millions in damages, leaving an economic impact for years to come. Plus, natural disasters caused by snowstorms , such as floods and avalanches, often claimed even more lives than the initial storms themselves.
Iran snowstorm
The deadliest snowstorm on record happened in Iran in February 1972 when 4,000 lives were lost.
The Iran snowstorm dropped more than 10 feet of snow and lasted for six days across the northern and central regions of the country. In southern Iran, however, the numbers were much more drastic. They received 26 feet of snow, and two towns had no survivors.
The snow took out power lines, buried towns, and crushed transportation.
That’s all I wanted to say. Thanks for your atte ntion. Goodbye!!
