Sahara Desert Is Covered In Snow For The Second Time(Photos) by Explorers(m): 2:01pm On Feb 06, 2018 |
Locals were stunned to see snow on the sand dunes in the Sahara Desert today after it snowed in a small Algerian town for the second time this year. Children could be seen playing on the snow-covered sand dunes just outside the town, while others posed on the snow to document the rare event. The heavy snowfall makes the sand dunes look like snow-covered Alpine mountains Snow was last seen in the town of Ain Sefra on February 18, 1979. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5357367/Sahara-Desert-town-snow-second-time-year.html 15 Likes 6 Shares

In 2016, the town known as 'The Gateway to the Desert' saw deep snow shortly after Christmas and it caused chaos, with passengers stranded on buses after the roads became slippery and icy. While Monday's snowfall was unusual, the town was covered in the white stuff last month, the third time in nearly 40 years. A young resident is making the most of the rare snowfall while playing on the sand dunes Locals poses for the camera while the snow keeps falling. A child takes a tumble in the snow, exposing the red sand hidden underneath it 11 Likes 1 Share

If you like quote me and call me dumb or shortsighted.... The fact remains that the world is coming to an end. Strange things are happening everywhere. What seems impossible are now possible. Live your life as if you won't exist again the following day. 196 Likes 20 Shares |

this might be a result of climate change or due to the movement of the African continent towards north every year... if this continues for at least five years then I'll believe its a change in their climate... I hope it favours them though 22 Likes 7 Shares |

sexybbstar:Climate change sister! Plus, the temperature of deserts rises with the sun and plummets at a surprising speed as the sun sets. The sands are loose so they don't retain heat. 38 Likes 1 Share |

Xbee007: It's not the sand, it's the lack of water. Water acts as a temperature buffer, holding heat during the day and giving it back at night. It is for this same reason that the surface of the moon behaves likewise. 1 Like |
