Snow falls in Cairo, Egypt for the first time in over a century



For the very first time in over 100 years, a winter storm has taken snow to an area known for its heat and sand, Cairo in Egypt.   According to local reports, it happened instantly and unexpectedly on Wednesday Dec. 11th. The state of Egypt's Meteorological centre said it was amount of time in decades since the last snowfalls and it took residents of Cairo suburbs by surprise. But the majority are delighted because they've never seen snow before. They took to Twitter to post their amazement in words and shared pictures  The snowfall has forced the closure of the country's ports and several other businesses for a times now. Who desires snow in Nigeria?
