Snow is in the Brda region rare phenomenon. Although
it fell several times, even in large quantities
in the last years.
First title of this page was Winter Fairy Tale in
Brda, because I prepared it before I have moved to
Šmartno. On the night of Monday, 11th on
Tuesday, 12th February, 2013, in the Brda
fell 30 cm of snow, which caused severe problems in the
region where the people are not used to. And problemes could
not be quickly solved, as it happens in fairy tales. The
Brda covered with snow are fairy beautiful, but only
for that one, who observes them from a distance, so I
renamed the page.
Snow fallen five times in 2010th year, three
times in the first months, twice in the last two. Till
February 1013, the most snow of the last two decades fell on
the night between Friday and Saturday, the 17th-18th
December, 2010. Snow cover in the Brda was 15 cm
thick, but on the top the Korada (Kobalar) hill there
were 20 cm thick.
Winter 2012/13 was even more generous with the amount
and duration of snow cover, as of the 2010.
Of course, the burja wind blew and created snow drifts.
