In Euskal Herria, an impressive temporary cold started and almost entirely snowed that night

68
years ago

02 February 1956,

In Euskal Herria, an impressive temporary cold began, almost entirely snowy that night. It lasted about a month, although the temporal and cold did a little break. For example, in San Sebastian, due to the cold from Europe, there were 19 days of ice in total and many days the thermometer was not raised by 0 °C. The cold caused many deaths in Europe, especially people living on the street.
