The meteorological office in Dubai has issued a severe weather warning for Dubai today from 6pm onwards. This probably does not happen so often in this rather calm region (weather-wise).
“From this evening onwards the weather will become unsettled with thunderstorms accompanied by heavy rain, strong gusty winds and the possibility of hail,” the met office said in its warning. “Winds may gust to 40 knots (75km/h) with poor visibility and flooding, making driving conditions difficult. This unsettled weather will persist throughout Tuesday.”
A public weather warning was also issued for the northern Emirates warning of strong winds. The strange weather last weekend already killed 4 people in the UAE during thunderstorms and heavy rain.
3 more people were killed in Sharjah while just standing in water. They have been electrocuted. Another accident happened in Dubai’s Global Village when an entrance collapsed, killing one and injuring 13 more. So you better take that weather warning for Dubai serious…
