Just wow! That's snow to behold, so deep. Great shots of the centre of Madrid too, very nice seeing it in snow, albeit a bit slushy.

Yes, this snowfall was a so rare. Because the temperature was over -4º...and the temperatures in 2000 masl were +0,5/+1...well, in Madrid over the 06:30 no Snow, Rain ice (How do you sais in English..Rain with -4º?). So Madrid was a chaos...

Quieres decir "Freezing rain", creo, cuando la lluvia se congela al momento de llegar al suelo?
