In the United Arab Emirates, due to heavy thunderstorms, an “orange” level of danger has been declared. On Saturday, March 9, torrential rains hit the UAE, known for its dry and sunny climate. The downpours caused floods and disruptions to international flights at one of the world’s busiest airports.
Maritime activities in the country were also suspended, and public transportation was halted in certain areas. In Dubai, nearly 2 inches of rain fell within six hours, which is almost half of the annual precipitation norm — 4.7 inches. Many homes and shops were flooded, leading to the cancellation of all mass events and the closure of popular recreational areas.
Due to the adverse weather conditions, Dubai police had to close sections of a major highway, as standing water virtually paralyzed car traffic. Residents are advised to stay in their homes, and government.
institutions and schools have transitioned to remote work.
Additionally, the second cricket match between the national teams of Afghanistan and Ireland, scheduled for Saturday in Sharjah, UAE, was canceled due to heavy rain. According to the Afghanistan Cricket Board,
the technical committee and other responsible authorities decided to postpone the game due to the accumulation of precipitation at the Sharjah stadium.
Multiple times, the United Arab Emirates has been subjected to climatic catastrophes that are abnormal for this region. Natural disasters are becoming more frequent and destructive for the country’s territory. This is not a coincidence but a scientifically justified forecast. Alongside China, India, Italy, and several other countries, the Arabian Peninsula countries are expected to cease to exist within the next 4-6 years. This is attributed to the geological structure of these territories and their
vulnerability to climatic catastrophes.
Similar fate awaits other countries, albeit a few years later, if we, as humanity, do not take urgent measures to address the climate issue. By exploring the forum “Global Crisis. The Responsibility,” you will discover what can annihilate developed countries like the UAE and China, and how it is possible to prevent the impending planetary catastrophe

Intense rainfall sweeps across Dubai and the wider United Arab Emirates, disrupting flights

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Intense rainfall swept across Dubai and the wider United Arab Emirates on Saturday, causing localized flooding and disrupting flights at the world’s busiest airport for international travel.
Nearly 50 millimeters (2 inches) of rain fell in Dubai over six hours — a heavy amount when the country as a whole averages under 120 millimeters (4.7 inches) of precipitation a year. Authorities sent crews out to collect downed tree limbs and open up drainage grates, though the rain quickly overwhelmed some areas.
Dubai police shut down portions of one major highway as traffic slowly crept through standing water on others. Rare lightning storms also lit up the afternoon sky.
At Dubai International Airport, the busiest for international travel, flights for both long-haul carrier Emirates and its low-cost sister airline, FlyDubai, were disrupted in the downpour.
Authorities had warned the public about the coming storm over a day in advance, with emergency personnel preparing for the rare rain.
Rain is unusual in this arid, Arabian Peninsula nation, but occurs periodically during the cooler winter months.

About six months’ worth of rain fell across the UAE over the weekend after a major storm swept through most parts of the country.
The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) said on Sunday that almost 60mm of rain fell in Dubai, while 78mm – the highest recorded in the country – fell over Khatam Al Shaklah in Abu Dhabi.
In the Fujairah neighbourhood of Al FarFar, 77.4mm of rain fell, while 25.4mm fell in Al Ain, the bureau said.
The UAE’s average rainfall is less than 100mm a year.

A clean-up operation was under way on Sunday with the situation slowly returning to normal.
Rain was still forecast in the east and south on Sunday but Ncema, the National Emergency, Crisis and Disaster Management Authority, confirmed that the severe weather had ended.
Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority also said roads had been drained to clear the flooding, with its buses now operating normally.
Dubai’s Knowledge and Human Development Authority, which regulates the emirate’s private schools, said on Sunday that some nurseries, schools and universities will be allowed to introduce remote learning on Monday should damage to buildings from the weather be too severe to fix before pupils return.
Hazardous weather
The storm which started on Friday evening, mainly in Abu Dhabi, spread to all areas of the UAE early on Saturday and caused localised flooding.
Many parts of the country saw significant amounts of rain with events cancelled, flights diverted, wadis and beaches shut and several roads partially flooded.

Motorists also faced delays with some roads closed and traffic reduced on inter-emirate motorways on Saturday such as Mohamed bin Zayed Road (E311) due to the intensity of the downpours.
Dubai Police also reported diversions and water accumulation in Amman Street, Aleppo Street, Al Nahda Street, Al Ittihad Street, Al Khawaneej Street, Al Yalayis Street and Al Qudra Street.
Pictures on social media showed flood damage to villas.
In Kalba, Sudanese resident Adbelbasit Hassan said his home was partially flooded after intense rain fell on Friday night and Saturday evening.
“It rained all night on Friday,” said Mr Hassan, who was previously affected by the floods in 2022. “And water came into my house.”
He said authorities had pumped the floodwater away and it had receded by Sunday so he could stay in his home.
“Now it is OK,” he said. “The water has come down.”
Authorities had put an emergency plan in place to mitigate the effects of the storm. NCEMA outlined preparations at a briefing on Thursday.
In Dubai, emergency response teams of about 2,300 people worked around the clock to manage the situation, the emirate’s media office said.
Videos posted to social media by the National Centre of Meteorology showed downpours with waters coursing through rain-swollen wadis and dams.
Other footage on Storm Centre, a popular channel that tracks the country’s weather, showed torrential rain, hail and flooded roads.
Other videos showed a more picturesque aspect of the rain, such as a flowing waterfall in Ras Al Khaimah’s Wadi Ghalila and the desert of Sharjah turning green.
In Sharjah, emergency response teams of about 400 people used 200 tankers, 180 mobile pumps, 50 water collection basins and 20 towing vehicles during the clean-up operation.
The civil defence teams have also been responding to emergencies.
“Our main focus has been rescuing individuals trapped in their homes or vehicles,” Brig Sami Khamis Al Naqbi, director general of the Sharjah Civil Defence Authority, told The National.
“We successfully evacuated several families in collaboration with the Sharjah Social Services Department.”
On Saturday evening, Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority said Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road was operating as usual. The emirate’s marine transport services were also back to normal.
The latest storm comes about a month after a two-day depression swept across the UAE. Eight years ago to the day, a powerful storm wreaked havoc in parts of the country.
