^^they will either love it or freak out seeing as this part of the world snowfall is very rare

[RedSea]

^yeah, sorry, I didn't post the image before, now check it out, mostly they freaked out quite frankly.Never in hundred years, did I ever thaught, Hargeysa would experience snow fall, well at least not before Minnesota.

[ElPunto]

^Wow - I never thought it ever got that cold in Hargiesa. Didn't think it got much below 10 C. Hope those poor or homeless do not get too adversely affected by it

[Chimera]

ey man hargeisa looks like switzerland or one of those snow countries sh1t :eek:

 

masha-allah!

[RedSea]

^Could you believe, if I told you,they had their shovels out, shoeveling the snow from their doorways, they did.

[Ms DD]

It is amazing. I never thought it could get that cold. The picture looks beautiful though. Nice houses. I remembered when i went to Norway lst november.

 

PS..Just wondered why this was on a political forum?

[RedSea]

^^ooh Cambaro Cambaro, did you not know that it has goten to the point here in SOL where, when one mentions a city back home,it quickly turns into political scene even when not intended to. So I knew sooner or later,this would find itself in here. If I posted on the General topics section,I just knew it would, so I thought I oughta save the guys doing the moving,a little favor by just keeping it here to begin with.

ey Mr red sea is that pic hargeisa or some western country?

 

people attacking me on a different forum and accussing of coming with fake pics

 

fill me in

[Jabhad]

Tell 'em the dream of turning Somaliland into switzerland is coming true. Breath-taking pictures mr.Red Sea.

[RedSea]

^lol.yep.

 

Waaar heedhe Wiil balaayo, miyaad sii gudbisay, haa u sheeg waa Hargeysa dheh, tell them it has something to do with global worming, wuxuun ku akhri.

 

Basically, how this happened was, there was heavy dayr season rain in Hargeysa at this time, while it was pouring, all of sudden the atmosphere changed into colder temperatures, thus making the rainfall turn to heavy snow fall which cars and people couldnt' move out of their "drive ways "for 20 hours (it starting to sound like Minnesota). Anyways,it's hard to believe,but yes what you see is what you get.

[Jaylaani]

It was hail not snow. It happens a lot in Hargeisa region but never before in this magnitude.

 

It was hot when I was there over the summer…more like Djibouti. I couldn't believe it.

[RedSea]

^well, Jay, it started out as hail accompanying the rainfall,but later it turned into snow, or else hail wouldn't have to be cleared out of the road,as the the report indicates.

 

The area of the picture looks bit familiar, it's the outskirt of Hargeysa,near the mountain(Badhka)where people used to get executed during the last dictatorship regime.

 

p.s, during your vacation: miyaanad sawiro soo Qaadin, waamaxay spirit SOL maad ka soo bixin Jay.

[Juje]

I can understand if it snows in Hargeysa for the first time, but what suprises me about the picture is not only the snow but that the houses already have a chimney. How?

[RedSea]

^could be the drift of the heavy rains and dust combine,and in which after that the snow fall hit.

 

It could also simply be the dirt or the dust attracted by the homes from the dirt streets.Good enough.
