UAE NOW! UAE Weather Alert: Devastating Floods and Hailstorms Hit the Emirates!
Early in the morning on February 12, heavy rains accompanied by thunder and lightning hit the United Arab Emirates. Intense showers occurred in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Ras Al Khaimah, and Fujairah.
A country whose infrastructure is designed to combat sandstorms faced an unprecedented challenge due to the floods. Dubai authorities issued an emergency alert to mobile phones shortly after 6 am, warning of "weather fluctuations" throughout the emirate. They urged the public to stay away from beaches, "avoid valleys," and exercise caution while driving.
Government educational institutions and establishments switched to remote work. Dubai's private schools, nurseries, and universities were urged to follow suit, and private sector companies were advised to apply "flexible working models" for employees.
Heavy rains caused flooding and blocked streets in some areas of Dubai. Vehicles got stuck in standing water as drainage systems couldn't cope with the downpour. The Dubai Roads and Transport Authority offered alternative routes to bypass waterlogged roads leading to Dubai International Airport.
Sharjah Police reported the closure of the ring road in the city of Kalba due to flooding caused by heavy rain. Officials at Sharjah International Airport urged passengers to arrive at least three hours before departure and check the status of their flights before heading to the airport.
The meteorological bureau posted a series of videos on social media depicting the severe weather, including thunder, lightning, and a hailstorm in the Northern Emirates.
In the city of Al Ain (in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi), unprecedentedly large and intense hail fell amid a sharp drop in temperature. Residents considered this event historical as the scorching sands were covered with a layer of hail. Many cars were flooded due to the flooding.
Hail and flooding in the desert are not the first signs of events that are making waves on the internet. On the international online forum "Global Crisis. Responsibility," information was presented about the true causes of climate change on the planet, as well as a model of events for the next 7 years.
