[OT] Weather trivia question
 

Hi.
can anyone tell me which is the largest country in the world where it never
snows?
Not just at sea level, but anywhere including any mountains.
Brazil is a good starting point but apparently in the far south in june you
can get some on the mountains.

other countries still in the frame are sudan, saudi arabia and indonesia.

does anyone have the definative answer?

thanks

alistair.

Snow was reported in the mountains of Saudi Arabia earlier this winter so
you can exclude that one.

It certainly snows occasionally in Saudi Arabia. I remember one notable
occasion in the 1970s when Riyadh reported continuous moderate snow.
It's about 2000 ft above sea level.

There's a glacier in Irian Jaya, the Indonesian half of New Guinea
island. The mountains there reach about 16,000 ft.

I don't know about Sudan.
