It snowed in Cairo today for the first time in, well ... a long time! Nobody in Cairo was dreaming of a white Christmas,
but it looks like they'll get one. The worst snowstorm in more than 50
years hit the Middle East, blanketing Cairo, Jerusalem and areas of
Syria in white powder. It was the first time in 100 years that Egypt had
seen snow. In areas like Palestine, some were caught off guard.
The United
Nations expressed concern for refugees caught in the cold, but many
families are ineligible for help because they are not registered with
the UN, according to Al Jazeera.
