The blue skies are peeking through but for three hours parts of Dubai saw torrential rain.

Featuring heavy winds and thunder and lightning, it was the first major downpour of the season and the roads weren’t the only places that saw floods…

As usual, Dubai social media was also flooded with videos and images, with one resident sharing a video of Dubai Mall, in which you can see light rain has breached one of the world’s largest malls, as well as a cleaning crew operation already underway.

“We can confirm that The Dubai Mall was affected by the heavy rainfall, causing leakages in limited areas.
“We are working to contain all leakages and the mall remains operational and open to the public. Mall staff are on the ground, ensuring the visitor experience remains unaffected.
