Sorry, there's just something wrong with some people here.

just google the topic, and read.

Spoiler! 

A powerful winter storm sweeping the eastern Mediterranean this week is causing mayhem across the region and inflicting extra misery on Syrians convulsed in civil war and refugees who have fled the fighting.

The storm, named Alexa, is expected to last until Saturday, bringing more snow, rain and freezing temperatures to large swathes of Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel and the Palestinian territories.

The bad weather, which began on Wednesday, is taking a disproportionate toll on the 2.2 million refugees living outside Syria and the 6.5 million people displaced within the country. (Reuters)

When I did work in the middle east mobaot man ug 0 deg centigrade kung mag-winter na ang northern hemisphere,
with the right moisture content ug atmospheric pressure maorag dako ang purohan nga mo-snow gyud didto.
When I work in Turkey, kung mag-uwan ug snow maorag naa man pud sa 0 deg centigrade ang temperature
mas bugnaw ug tugnaw kung dili mag-snow, kung mag-blizzard with snowfall lang hinoon tugnaw gyud kaayo.

TS first pic is Las Vegas, I think it was first spread on reddit. The Eiffel Tower in the background is a dead giveaway.
