Just got texted by Daisy that there are clouds in the skies of Dubai today. Back home, this would be very ordinary but over here in the desert climate this is rare.
I have heard several times that sometime in the next few months ahead there will be a big spell of rain that doesn't stop for several days. Schools will be closed and there will be flooding. This is obvious because I find it next to impossible to find drains here. Back home they are every where and sometimes adults and more often children fall into them.

We will have some rain - not like Singapore's - but it's unlikely to be non stop for days. Last year was exceptional and we did have heavy rains over several days.
We had flooding because a) all the construction has disrupted drainage and/or drains on the sites aren't built yet and b) we do have drains but they're full of sand. Part of the problem is the street swepers pushing sand into the drains - I posted a photo on my blog, here.
