A Spectrum Of Weather Updates In Dubai On Friday Left Residents In Utter Confusion
Friday, UAE’s weather gave us a whole lot of ups and downs.
From parts of Dubai being engulfed in an intense sandstorm, other areas of the city were enjoying cool rain showers. Whether residents were indoors or outside literally everyone was confused by the sudden change in weather that occurred within a blink of an eye.
Temperatures were ranging from 40°C to 45°C all across the emirates and let’s not even get started on the humidity which was at a soaring 70%!
Because weather forecasts had predicted this weather for the weekend, some residents were still alerted and made plans accordingly, though many were still taken by surprise and took to social media to share their utter confusion.
Crown Prince of Dubai Sheikh Hamdan a.k.a Fazza posted about Dubai’s extreme weather on his insta stories, where one story is of a sandstorm and the other of SURGING rain
