This cartoon by Adams from the Daily Telegraph uses the UK weather as a metaphor for the banking crisis in Cyprus.
March 2012 was the third warmest on record in the UK, whereas March 2013 is expected to be the coldest since 1969. Many parts of the UK are still covered in snow following heavy snowfall last week.
The cartoon shows a Cypriot village this time last year, and the same village today. A year ago, everything was sunny. Cyprus's banks were still an attractive proposition for investors, offering high interest rates on deposits. A year on, however, and everything has changed. The snow symbolizes the disaster which has befallen Cyprus's banking system (the cold wind of economic uncertainty, the big freeze of fiscal disaster, etc.). In fact, the EU bailout deal agreed in Brussels last night closes down the island's second-biggest bank and inflicts huge losses on wealthy savers.
You can read Adams' own comments (and those of Telegraph readers) on this cartoon on his blog.
WEATHER NOTE
The actual weather forecast for Cyprus is for sun and temperatures in the twenties today. Snow on Cyprus is uncommon, and the last time it snowed was in 1997!
