Thank you my friend, I really look forward to visiting your great country very soon. As for winter, I live about 100 miles south of NY and right now is is very cold here. Brrrrr!

I would advise you to wait, until things calm down a little bit before such visit. You probably should wait until March or April because by then Egypt would have a new Constitution, new elected Parliament, and a new elected president. It is relatively safe now, but i think you would enjoy your visit more then.

Global warming is affecting the Middle East in more of a "postive" way lol

Well, actually it used to be colder more regularly in KSA. Snowfall or temperatures below 0 used to happen regularly during winters in many different parts of KSA that are located sometimes 2000 km from each other. Now the weather is getting more strange indeed for each year. You had snowfall in Ha'il in the end of April this year and snowfall in Ta'if in Hijaz (located nearly 2000 meters above sea level) at the beginning of May from what I recall. Flooding also seems to be a regular thing.

Personally I don't really like cold weather or snow. Unless in mountain areas. Otherwise it is a pain in the """ . Warm weather is the best thing ever.

Ture, but it would be better for our region if it starts to rain more. We have a lot of desert areas that needs more water. This is just a sign for change i guess. It is just a sign nothing more .

Almost all the sealed roads have been reopened as of now. 0.5 to 1 meter of snow is quite common in some provinces in winter, and 3-5 meters in mountains.
