Parts of the city of Tanomah in southwestern Saudi Arabia have been blanketed in thick snow while other parts of the oil-rich kingdom baked under the scorching sun.
According to Saudi Gazette newspaper, a thick blanket of snow fell Tuesday on Tanomah located north of Abha in the Asir province.
Meanwhile, the suburban areas of Namas, Souda, Shaaf, Turaib, Oqbat Dalae, Khaibar Al-Janoub, Madda, Tihama Balasmar and Balahmar received heavy rainfalls accompanied by hailstorms.
