Where I see no snow
That's nothing. In February 1979, it snowed in the Sahara Desert for 30 minutes. There were some other fairly significant events in earlier February, so I figure it was just hell freezing over.



If you start getting dust storms in Britain, then we'll talk...
About 8 years ago it snowed in Israel, they were throwing snowballs in the cities instead of rocks....

I guess you could say hell had its first frost.
Snow in Israel's mountainous Jerusalem and Galilee regions is not uncommon.

On the contrary! My children miss it. Haven't had a good snowfall in 3 or 4 years!
