Deserts In Saudi Arabia Are Covered With Snow And Climate Change Couldn’t Be More Confusing

It wasn’t long ago when Tokyo in Japan had its first snowfall in November in 54 years (yeah, that happened). Now, Saudi Arabia (in the entire world) has received snowfall while temperatures dipped below the freezing point. And believe you me, the deserts looked liked a winter wonderland, wrapped around with powdery snow (never thought I’d say that!)

Making the most of the unlikely scenario people from the region are celebrating, because who wouldn’t? Look at the pictures to believe in miracles!

1. Yes, that’s Saudi Arabia!
