evidence: A viral video of snowfall in the Grand Mosque of Mecca has been widely making rounds on social media in the past few days. However, an official weather institution in Saudi Arabia has debunked the video. [...] The footage shows men and women enjoying the snowfall, while some even shooting the phenomenon on their phones or taking selfies. Even a policeman is seen carrying an umbrella. [...] Arab Weather, an account on Twitter, corroborated the news, tweeting, "Disclaimer: The circulating video titled ‘For the first time snow in Makkah Al-Mukarramah 1-1-2023’ is a technically modified video using filters, knowing that the temperature in Makkah today reached 30 degrees Celsius, and it is not climatically prepared for snowfall."
