HEAVY snow has covered the Sahara Desert in a freak winter weather storm.
More than 15 inches (40cm) has blanketed sand dunes across the small town of Ain Sefra, Algeria.
It is the second time snow has hit in nearly 40 years, with a dusting also recorded in December 2016.
But this snowfall which hit yesterday, is much deeper than the fleeting shower little more than a year ago.
Locals, who endure temperatures of 37C in summer, were stunned as dense snow settled on the town, known as ‘the gateway to the desert’.

Before the Roman Empire raped the Northern Sahara , it was a densely wooded area similar to California’s redwoods.
How do you think they made all them war ships and fueled the Empire.
We have been down this road before, as King Solomon said in ,
“Ecclesiastes 1:9New International Version (NIV)
9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun.”
Same old, same old.
We have short memories as a species.
