Topic Reading-Vol.1723-12/29/2016

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.
