Snow has covered the peak of the Jess Mountain here in Ras al Khaimah as temperature fell sharply to below zero degree centigrade.
Although limited snowfall had been recorded on the mountain in 2004 and reportedly in 1994, it is the first time the peak of the mountain is fully covered in about 20 centimetre-thick snow as the mercury plummeted to below zero degree centigrade in most part of the Ras Al Khaimah on Saturday afternoon.
Medium to heavy downpour on the mountains sharply brought the mercury down.
Jess Mountain, which stands at about 1,900 metres above sea level, is located 25 kilometres north east of Ras Al Khaimah. WAM
