<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr">ArabiaWeather.com- We remember with you in this hot summer atmosphere, which is considered boring for winter and snow lovers, we remember the historical snows of 1992 and 2003 in the capital, Amman!</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /><br /> As the Levant in general and Jordan in particular were exposed to two snow storms, which are the strongest in terms of snow accumulation in half a century. On this day of the two aforementioned years, all the neighborhoods of Amman were covered with about half a meter - as an average rate - of snow, while the storm was still in its half-life. Which necessitated declaring a state of extreme emergency and summoning the armored vehicles of the Jordanian Arab Army to open the buried roads, by direct order from His Majesty the King.<br /><br /><br /> And we start our journey from the year 1992. In the details, a deep depression formed over the island of Cyprus on February 24, 1992, accompanied by a very cold air mass of polar origin, whose impact extended to Jordan and Palestine for 4 consecutive days!<br /><br /> * The snow thickness in selected areas at the end of the storm was as follows:<br /><br /> Sweileh/North Amman 120 cm.<br /> Jabal Amman 65 cm<br /> Downtown/Amman: 20 cm.<br /> Al-Sharah Mountains / Southern Jordan: more than 3 metres.<br /> West Jerusalem: 50 cm.<br /><br /> And here are some pictures in several areas of the center of the Jordanian capital, Amman, in the middle of the storm! </p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><img alt="" src="/contents/sites/default/files/editor/images/25-2-1992Amman(1).jpg" style="height:450px; width:600px" /></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><img alt="" src="/contents/sites/default/files/editor/images/25-2-1992Amman_(1).jpg" style="height:480px; width:600px" /></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> As for the year 2003, a particularly strong snow storm hit the region of the southern Levant, that is, Jordan and Palestine.
