A Region in the Sahara Desert 39 Years Later Snow Was Gone!

The winter season, under the influence of the Northern Hemisphere, caused spectacular scenery in the Sahara, the world's greatest desert north of the African continent. The images come from Ain Sefra, a town of Algeria.
Worse weather conditions that also affect our country may be the winter season's perhaps the least favorite. However, due to its geographical location, there are still soils for these colds. One of them is the Sahara Desert which dazzles with its vast sand dunes.

On the last Sunday of the week we passed, the Aegean town of Algeria in the Sahara Desert was covered with a few inches of white cover. Indigenous people who have witnessed the unique scenery for 1.5 hours just before the snow began to melt, and the Sahara's sand dunes have witnessed snowfall for the last 39 years.

The photographer Zinnadine Hashas plastered the shutter to avoid missing scenes and recorded images that we could not see any longer. Ain Sefra, which has an annual rainfall below the drought limit, is located 1000 meters above sea level in the Atlas Mountains, which are surrounded by sand. According to the measurements made, the temperature was 12.4 degrees Celsius when snowing.

In fact, Algeria's weather service warned the western parts of the country against the snow for the past weekend. If it's Sunday night, the estimates are starting to look right. The cold weather wave from the western Mediterranean has left the town and its surroundings under snow when encountering a low-pressure stream.

As always, there will be internet news that thinks that this is a link to global warming. In fact, even the hottest parts of the world are likely to snow. They only happen quite rarely. If we take into account that the last year is the warmest 2nd or 3rd year recorded, we should not be surprised that it is snowing.
