In vanilla, many provinces in the middle east have border crossings designated as arid, especially along the Holy Land coast ie Lesser Armenia to Antioch to Tripoli to Jerusalem and the other way around. Iirc the chance for snow is highest in temperate terrain, then lush and then arid. So while it hasn't happened to me, it is possible to encounter snow in one of those in the middle east, although admitedly it should be very rare. I am not certain if desert maps can be snowy though. It could be perhaps a very occasional engine glitch as sandstorms are the desert winter equivalent of snow storms in northern terrains.Originally Posted by Axalon
In north africa all crossings as i recall are rock desert from Morocco to Tunisia and then sand in Cyrenaica and Egypt, hence again not sure for snow in battles there, yet some of the provinces themselves (Morocco and Algeria) ie the castle maps where sieges are fought are arid.
