Why is the Sahara desert under water? - BBC Africa #shorts
Parts of the Sahara desert have flooded for the first time in decades.
Severe rainfall in September over the Moroccan Sahara has left the desert sand dunes inundated.
Some areas of southeastern Morocco saw more than a year’s worth of rainfall in just two days.
According to experts the area is not usually affected by rainfall from the Inter Tropical Front, which usually affects the Malian and Mauritanian Sahara.
