It鈥檚 a cold start to the weekend in the Okanagan with temperatures reaching close to -10 C over the next few days.
Across the pond in Europe, a difference kind of 鈥渋ce鈥� is making the news.
Fun Fact of the day:
Earlier this week, nearly $US 1.1 billion in diamonds and jewellery was stolen from the Green Vault within the Dresden Castle in Dresden, Germany. The estimated total would make it the largest museum heist in history.
An 鈥淥cean鈥檚 13鈥� kind of robbery, thieves got away with 18th-century jewellery sets of nearly 37 diamonds, rubies, emeralds and sapphires including the Dresden White diamond which was worth nearly $US 12 million.
The robbers may have stolen the financial value of the loot, but the director of Dresden鈥檚 state art collections said it鈥檚 impossible to estimate the real value.
鈥淲e cannot give a value because it is impossible to sell,鈥� Marion Ackerman .
鈥淭he material value doesn鈥檛 reflect the historic meaning.鈥�
Post-robbery, the thieves are expected to have escaped via the Autobahn highway, marking an almost perfect end to the movie that will surely be made one day.
There were no reported injuries during the heist and the police investigation and manhunt in ongoing.
