Wetter auf Stromboli

Snow

Snow occasionally falls in the summit region (Photo Jaeger, January 1990). It is very rare on the coast, but an unusual cold front in late January 1999 caused intensive snowfall at sea level: Video (MPEG), taken by Roby in Piscità on 31 January 1999. The event is so rare that the reactions of the children of Stromboli are worth another video (MPEG), taken on 30 January 1999, when the first snow fell in the village. With a bit of luck you can see the snow on Pizzo via the INGV Stromboli Live Cam, like in the images above left.
