After starring this Tuesday in one of the most striking images of the day, fighting low temperatures with rows of burning paraffin cubes, this Wednesday many of them used the method of artificial rain through sprinkler irrigation. The water, falling on the flowering trees, freezes and makes an igloo effect, preventing the temperature from dropping below 0°.

The thermometers are registering values similar to those of the previous day on Wednesday, reaching -6 degrees Celsius in some areas of Cieza.
