VIDEO, PHOTOS: Snow arrived earlier in Hungary than meteorologists calculated

As we wrote earlier, an Arctic cold front arrived in Hungary this morning. As a result, snowfall started in the Western and Southern regions of the country and some high mountains. Here are some photos and a video.

The snowing was not country-wide but took place in some of the coldest regions of Hungary today. Interestingly, meteorologists forecasted that only for tomorrow.

However, as the live feed broadcasted from Hungary’s highest peak, the Kékestető (1,014m), snow has already arrived in Hungary today. Below is the southern ski slope:
