Madrid Filomena Snowstorm - Spain
Welcome to my photo gallery, an evocative journey through the remarkable Filomena snowstorm that blanketed Madrid in January 2021. This rare meteorological event saw the city paralysed by the heaviest snowfall in 50 years, with some areas receiving over 50 centimetres of snow. As temperatures plummeted to -10°C, Madrid transformed into a winter wonderland, offering surreal and breathtaking scenes unlike any in recent memory. My collection captures the stark beauty and profound impact of Filomena: from snow-laden landmarks and eerily silent streets to the resilience and warmth of Madrileños coming together in the face of adversity. Each photograph tells a story of a city that, despite its usual mild winters, embraced the extraordinary snowfall with wonder and solidarity. Step into this visual chronicle of an unforgettable chapter in Madrid's history, where every image is a testament to nature's unpredictability and the spirit of a resilient city.
