Breathtaking View of the Sahara Adorned with Snow

Description

No, this is no mirage. The dunes of the Sahara desert were really covered in snow on Sunday morning, producing one of the strangest sights around. Snow has only been seen in the Sahara three times in nearly 40 years, but on Sunday, dunes in Algeria's Ain Sefra where topped with cold, white snow. Some 16 inches of snow fell between Saturday night and Sunday morning, covering the town of Ain Sefra, which is sometimes called "the gateway to the desert." Unfortunately the rare beauty didn't last as it melted the same day as soon as the desert sun started shining.
