Arab weather - Sinan Khalaf - Unusually, snow, accumulations and temperatures below zero degrees Celsius. This happened in the city of Rafha in the year 2016, when the city's residents woke up on Thursday morning, January 28, to a white snow cover that covered all parts of the city.

 

It is noteworthy that these snows resulted from the rush of a very cold moist polar air, which caused snow to fall with this unusual intensity for the city of Rafha.
