given how the people there probably have no cold gear, a lot of them could freeze to death.
I’ve heard the comment often enough, but this the first photo I’ve ever seen of **** frozen over.
Allah will....
I’ve been in the Middle East, but I’ve been in American deserts at night. They get really, really cold.
It’s GoreBull warming!
Lived in Saudi for a year. The winter months are cool/cold for sure. I’ve seen ice on standing water many times. I’ve never observed snow except from quite a distance in mountains in Iraq. The Saudi’s would said the cold weather comes from Iraq.
I spent a few days in Dubai this past January and experienced daytime temps about 75-80 and might temps about 50-55.Yes,it was only a few days and yes,Dubai is on the coast at sea level.
Just sayin....
kinda weird.
Warmer climes use sand on their snowed roads.
What the heck will the Saudis use ?
Probably used imported sand from another Middle Eastern country.
Something about hell freezing over...
The end of the world has officially begun.
Global axis tilt along with a solar minimum. Studied this years ago, I can’t find the sites that covered the axis tilt any more, but what is happening make sense along that line.
North pole is moving 40 to 70 kilometers a year toward Russian Siberia. The news actually follows this with the brutal cold winters they are and have been having. For the US, we get warmer. What sucks about this is not the sunshine. It’s the delusional government bull crap about climate change etc. No shit, the us is heading toward the equator, its warmer. But only the government can fix this with a carbon tax.
Will no longer comment, as the comments would be fitting only for non-family sites.

Twenty dollar bills.
The Mohave Desert freezes over revery year. Very beautiful to see how the ice freezes on the plants. Yes, you would easily freeze to death overnight in the desert.
I was in central Saudi 1973-4. The weather does not compare to the coast. (We went to Dubai for “entertainment” :)!
Well, whaddya know, Nick, it’s a snowing in Hell!
Froze my a$$ off there in Desert Storm. And yes, hunkered down as it was blowing driving snow one night.
Me too. Wore full mopp gladly to keep warm.
Snow in Hades...
