Saudi Arabia's northwestern city of Hael was covered with what seemed to be snow Sunday after almost three days of unrelenting weather conditions.
A number of provinces in the kingdom have been hit with floods and hailstones as temperatures dropped dramatically.
Pictures posted on Twitter and other social networking sites show a thin white layer of snow covering the ground.
Meanwhile, a video -- which circulated online Sunday -- exhibited a group of men working together to form a human chain and save others who had been trapped by the floods.
On Saturday, the minister of education told Al Arabiya that schools in five different Saudi provinces were closed due to weather conditions.
Heavy rainfall and flooding has kept the kingdom on high alert over the past few days.
