Nature and its paradoxes


Nature has a sense of humour and knows how to play with paradoxes.
I have always liked snow. Living in a plain place in Italy, remarkable snowfalls (i.e. to be able to make snowballs and play with friends) have been quite rare as far as I remember, maybe a couple every ten years or so.

I moved from the supposed-to-be land of the sun to the supposed-to-be land of the snow, and now my Italian hometown is totally covered in white, whereas in Vancouver we have clear sky and even cleaner streets, with some snow only on the top of the mountains.
Were they not talking about global warming?

Can you spot the difference?
