Calls for “some snowflakes falling” even though they were hit by almost 2 feet of snow in some areas.

“This is the way the MSM is downplaying this news, even in Morocco,” says reader Argiris Diamantis.

According to weather forecasts for Monday, October 29, prepared by the National Meteorological Directorate,  Falls of some snowflakes on the Reliefs of the Middle Atlas.

“’Some snowflakes falling” is the understatement of the year’ says Argiris. ‘The other news agency mentioned 30 cm (12 inches) of snow on the roads and even 50 cm (almost 2 ft) at higher elevations.’

‘And of course a picture of a beautiful woman with an Arabic snowman. No, not pictures of buses and trucks stuck in the snow. Snow is fun, according to the MSM.’

The Middle Atlas has put on its winter clothes. The localities of Imouzzer, Ifrane, Michlifen and El Hajeb experienced heavy snowfall this weekend.
