God is still demonstrating His supremacy above all creations! He sometimes override nature to make His will be established. Most times, the reason may be hidden from us – His creations.
A “historic” storm in the Middle East, not seen since 112 years ago has transformed Cairo – Capital city of Egypt into a winter wonderland on Friday leaving the city a blanket of powdery, white snow.
Due to Cairo’s low rate of precipitation and typically above-freezing winter temperatures, snow is an exceptionally unusual weather phenomenon for the North African city. So unusual, in fact, that the Los Angeles Times, citing local news reports, writes that the last recorded snowfall in Cairo was more than 100 years ago.
Ali Abdelazim, an official at the city’s meteorological centre, confirmed to the Agence France-Presse this is the “first time in very many years” that snow has fallen in the Cairo area.

The same Middle East snow storm which has been identified as “Alexa” however left neighboring state Sinai in jeopardy as the inhabitants were unprepared for the situation.
