Original Note:
This is a river of hail, not ice. Hail is a type of precipitation that occurs during thunderstorms. Hail rivers in Saudi Arabia are not directly caused by climate change, but climate change can exacerbate the conditions that lead to such events. https://www.upworthy.com/this-unusual-river-of-ice-in-the-desert-looks-like-fun-but-the-reason-its-there-isnt-so-funny https://www.iflscience.com/bizarre-video-sand-river-middle-eastern-emerges-online-32196
