Rain Gently Falls


Rain on Tuesday caused flooding in some key roads and caused traffic delays in parts of Dubai and Sharjah.

There is flooding on most routes and all major arterial roads are moving slowly.


The atmospheric system responsible for the weather has been bringing in moisture-laden clouds from over Ethiopia and the Red Sea via Yemen and Saudi Arabia and resulted in the heavy rain that hit the country since Saturday.

"This kind of weather is not unusual in this month," said a weatherman, noting that the rain has been rather delayed this year. February is normally the year's wettest month and witnesses thunderstorms, rain and gusty winds all over the country.
