Astonishing events in the heart of the Sahara: a British tourist, whose sneezes curiously trigger showers, surprises everyone by causing a storm in the desert.
Last week, a rather unusual scene unfolded in the arid calm of the Sahara Desert. Rupert Snodgrass, hailing from Norwich, England, was on a journey to experience “the adventure of his life.” But what no one knew was that Rupert had a very special quirk: every time he sneezes, it rains. And of course, no one could have imagined the effect this could have in the middle of the desert.
“I had just taken a bit of pepper at dinner,” Rupert recounts, “and all of a sudden, I sneezed. And then, the sand started swirling and the winds began to blow. It was mind-blowing.” According to witnesses, a genuine sandstorm was triggered, complete with rain, which is almost never seen in this part of the desert. The incident, initially terrifying, ended without damage, although several camels were visibly confused.
A local meteorologist, Abdul Al-Zaafaran, shocked, stated: “It’s a one-in-a-billion chance. I’ve seen a lot of things in my career, but a man sneezing and making it rain in the Sahara Desert? That’s unprecedented!” He added that the rain was not enough to alter the ecosystem but sufficient to give a surprising shower to a few astonished reptiles.
Following this, Rupert Snodgrass was approached by numerous travel agencies eager to include him in their Sahara trip packages. “After all, who wouldn’t want a bit of refreshing rain during a hike in the desert?” jokes the British man, while promising to avoid pepper for his upcoming meals.
