Weatherday: Ten days of correction

The village of La Higuera, Bolivia, where Che Guevara was killed in 1967 (2006).

A bright morning with a mix of cloud and sunny spells. Cloudier later and some rain in the late afternoon, heavy at times.

Temperatures up to 13deg in light to moderate southerly breeze.

On this day in 1582, Catholic countries adopted the Gregorian Calendar, taking ten days out of the year to correct accumulated errors in the previous Julian Calendar.
