"An unusual late-season snow fell across the Kashmir region along the
border of India and Pakistan during early May. Indian defense ministry
officials reported that that the army was dispatched in an effort to rescue
some 20,000 nomads trapped in the Himalayan areas of Kashmir, where heavy
snow had effectively cut off the region (AFP).

In France, unseasonably heavy snow fell on the 9th in the northeast areas
of the country. Heavy snow accumulation on the order of 30 cm (one foot)
was observed at elevations above 900 meters (2,970 feet). The snow caused
road closures and power outages, with some 5,000 households losing
electricity (AFP)."
