Part of the Al-Jawf region in Saudi Arabia is covered with snow for the first time in history. This is reported by local media, UNN writes.

Heavy snow has fallen in the Al-Jawf region in northern Saudi Arabia for the first time in history. The video shows the desert covered in snow. 

Since last Wednesday, heavy rains accompanied by large hail have reportedly hit parts of the region in the kingdom. Only yesterday, snow covered the mountainous areas, creating a breathtaking winter scene.

The Saudi Arabian Weather Department warnsthat thunderstorms are likely to occur in most areas of Al Jawf in the coming days.
