"A bizarre highly unusual phenomenon shocked the southern Philippine residents as of this 8:00 am (UTC+08:00) there were confirmed reports that a 3 straight hours of heavy snowfall was reported to certain areas in the Southern region," writes Youtuber "RodsburghNewsLive."

Of course, there is no truth to this. Such news should have been reported by major news agencies in the country and around the world if it really happened.

This "Snow In The Philippines 2013" video is just a hoax. The one writing this post is actually from Southern Philippines and it was scorching hot when he went to the dentist, yesterday, during the said time frame. There is no way it would snow at 32 degrees Celsius. The clip also talked about the Philippines having a "fall season," which is absolutely false.

It goes without saying that you shouldn't believe everything that you read, hear, or see online.
