Quick Glance: Dubai Submerged in Floods After Year's Worth of Rain

More than 142mm of rain soaked Dubai within 24 hours.

Heavy thunderstorms hit the UAE, pouring over a year's worth of rain on Dubai in just hours.

Authorities dispatched tanker trucks to pump water off the streets as some homes were inundated, requiring residents to bail them out.

Rain is uncommon in the UAE, causing flooding due to insufficient drainage systems in many areas.

UAE: Landslides cause roads to collapse, leave craters in Al Ain, RAK - News | Khaleej Times

Quick Glance: UAE: Landslides Trigger Road Collapse in Al Ain, RAK

A massive natural disaster struck the region of Al Qua in Al Ain, resulting in a significant collapse of a sandy road resembling a massive crater. The incident, caused by heavy rainfall and overflowing wadis, has drastically altered the driving conditions for motorists in the area.

Fahad Mohamad, a representative from the storm center, characterized the situation in Al Ain as unparalleled.

The landslide, bearing resemblance to a waterfall, consumed a substantial portion of the road, rendering it inaccessible for drivers. The combined force of water flow and erosion led to the disintegration of the road, posing a hazardous scenario for anyone attempting to traverse the affected area.

Another occurrence involved the collapse of a road section leading towards Emirates Road in Ras Al Khaimah due to a landslide following intense rainfall in the region. Ras Al Khaimah Police took measures to isolate the affected zone and advise motorists to proceed with caution, reduce speed, and steer clear of the compromised road segment.
