Saudi Arabia is hit by a rare blizzard as the region sees snowfall

These camels are taking lumps in Saudi Arabia, which was hit by a blizzard on Thursday, according to a report.

The sad dromedaries – with their humps resembling snowy mountains – were caught on video, looking around at them during the surreal storm.

Meanwhile, residents of Tabuk and the neighboring mountainous region enjoyed the land of winter wonders as the popular holiday destination was covered in snow, the Khaleej Times reported.

Residents and tourists, including some who drove from the UAE, gathered in the area to enjoy the weather, which is an annual phenomenon, according to Al Arabiya.

The winter season in the kingdom is called Kashta or camping season.

Thursday’s highs in Saudi Arabia were 56 degrees Fahrenheit, with a low of about 36 degrees in the Tabuk area.
