It's quite a time for the strange weather, and it does not get much stranger than snow falling in one of the hottest places in the world.
On Sunday morning, Ain Sefra, a desert town in Algeria known as the "Gateway to the Sahara", experienced a large amount of snow for reportedly the third time in 40 years. Some reports say parts of the area got as deep as 15 inches of snow, but Ain Sefra officially reported less than one inch in some places. Some people are very excited about it. It was strange enough to provide some very special pictures from an area that usually sees some of the hottest temperatures on earth during the summer.
Now, it's common for the temperature across even the hottest of deserts to drop tens of degrees Farenheit at night, meaning any unusual snow could stay there around for a while. But photographers at the scene said the snow actually stayed intact(完好的) for a good portion of the day.
"We were really surprised when we woke up to see snow again," photographer Karim Bouchetata told Shutterstock. "It stayed all day on Sunday and began melting at around 5 p.m." While snow is not often falling down in the desert area, a similar snow phenomenon?happened just last year. Before that, it had been 37 years since Ain Sefra's last snowfall.
