Arabiaweather.com - On Thursday, January 10, 2013, the people of Damascus woke up to a bright white canvas, as snow filled every place in the capital of Jasmine.

The story begins with the hours of Wednesday morning, when some snow fell from time to time, most of which did not hold together on the ground, and the situation continued during the day without significant accumulations.

And during the night of Wednesday - Thursday, the city of Damascus witnessed very heavy and accumulated precipitation of snow, which fell on most of the city's elevations, so that the accumulations at dawn reached 20 cm in several areas of the capital, and to large thicknesses in the northern and western countryside of Damascus.

This came in the context of the region being affected by very cold air masses of polar origin associated with an air depression.
