Dear MEL
Topic Readers,
Snow
falls in Sahara for first time in 37 years
The
Sahara is the largest hot desert in the world. It is nearly as large as the
U.S. and spreads across most of Northern African countries; Algeria, Chad,
Egypt, Libya, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Sudan and Tunisia. The temperature
might reach 50 degrees during the day but could fall below zero at night in the
desert. The temperatures also vary by season and place. The highest point of
the desert is over 3,000 meters and the lowest is below the sea level. So there
is no wonder why they occasionally get some snowfalls in not only those highest
points but also in and around inhabited areas.
Enjoy
reading and seeing the photos of snow on the desert.
