The El Niño predictions of a deep winter in South America have come true: Perfect conditions exist throughout the Andes Range, with blower powder blanketing slopes in Chile and Argentina. For proof, behold these photos from TODAY, AUG. 11, in the Uco Valley of Argentina.

POWDER SOUTH guests have been enjoying stellar snow for weeks and the forecast shows no signs of slowing down as we reach the middle of the Southern Hemisphere winter.

We have had so much snow I’ve lost track!
