WHAT? It snowed yesterday? 1 of May?

I remember hail in this time of the year in Ta'if, Hejaz and KSA in general but not snow. Regardless of Ta'if being located at a elevation of 2000 meters.

الثلج بيجي من غيير ميعاد



Actually Mosab now you got me thinking. I remember that there was light snowfall in the end of May 2009 if my memory serves me right. I recall one of my cousins being at a wedding in Ta'if and telling us about it. The weather also made headlines.

Do you remember this by any chance?

I wasn't in KSA at the time.

Aha. I am pretty sure that this took place though so worse has been seen this time of the year!

After my exams later this month and in June I will be going back to Makkah. Don't expect anything else than hot, hot weather. Might seek refugee in Ta'if for a while.

Do you remember the snowfall in late March this year in Ta'if?

A Cactus covered in snow, Only in Saudi Arabia....

Yeah I do remember it, it was cool. But snowing in May in freaking Saudi Arabia is downright worrying if you ask me.

Haha, indeed.

I can imagine. Ta'if is lovely all year long. Yes, the climate is getting more extreme and weird for each year. What is lacking is for our many volcanic fields and extinguished volcanos to erupt out of sudden!

Also do not forget that it snowed in Ha'il a few days ago in connection with the unfortunate floods. Ha'il is located at a altitude of over 1000 m though and is situated significantly more northern than Ta'if. Still very unusual as well.

More unsteady weather to follow btw!

[al-Hasani]

Yes, apparently for a few more days.

Regarding the snowfall and weather in Ta'if yesterday.

You stole our mild weather, it's supposed to be spring these days, the most beautiful season as it used to be, but rather it directly turned from winter to Summer this time, it's freaking hot these days.

You call this $hit a mild weather?? We are ******* drowning here. I want the summer and the heat, a thousand times better than this.
