Great photo from Karim Bouchetata in Algeria - from the London Daily Mail:
A very unlikely white Christmas! Villagers stunned as snow falls in the Sahara for the first time in 37 YEARS
This might not be the first place you'd expect to find a festive snowy scene, but incredible images show the Sahara desert looking particularly chilly.
It is just the second time in living memory that snow has fallen, with the last occasion being in February 1979.
The pictures were taken by amateur photographer Karim Bouchetata in the small Saharan desert town of Ain Sefra, Algeria, yesterday afternoon.
Karim has a great eye - some more photos at the Daily Mail website. Unusual weather indeed and not warming.
