Tabuk residents expressed their happiness with the weather.
Spring snowfall has swept in to the mountains of north-west Saudi Arabian, turning the area white and delighting residents.
Clouds began to form early Sunday over Jabal Al-Lawz in Tabuk Province and by sunset, snow, covered all the area turning the ground into a white blanket.
Visitors rushed early Monday to witness the weather conditions near the Jordanian border and at the site of the NEOM mega project. Many shared videos and photos of the rare weather conditions at the mountain.
Fahd Al-Belawi said he and his family are pleased with the snow, adding that they came early to the mountain to enjoy the weather, which he described as "one the best times in the year."
Residents Nayef Al-Harby and Mohammad Al-Shammari said
this was their first time to see the region covered in snow.
"This is the first time we have seen the top of Jabal Al-Lawz blanketed in white, we've been waiting for this during the past days so we can come to enjoy the weather," they told SPA.
