The moderate rain always brings joy among the people. In the month of July when the heat is raging, UAE, especially in the northern and eastern areas, received moderate rainfall. Now it’s cloudy in Sharjah and Dubai as well (“Northern areas of UAE experience heavy rain with hails,” July 6, Gulf Today website).
According to the reports rain of different degrees of intensity and hail fell on separate areas across the UAE on Tuesday as a result of the country being affected by an air depression coming from northern India and southern Pakistan towards the Sultanate of Oman.
Moderate rain began to fall on Khatm Al Shiklah of Al Ain at 3pm, while moderate to heavy rain fell on Malaqet and heavy rain with hailstones hit Khatm Al Shiklah, Masaken, Al Hili, Al Foah and other areas. The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) called on the public to exercise caution during heavy rain and strong winds over some eastern areas, which may cause solid objects to fly and horizontal visibility to become lower.
On Wednesday, when I woke up in the morning the weather was comparatively less hot, it was cloudy and the rain was expected. People around the United Arab Emirates always enjoy moderate rain because it brings a smile on their faces. I hope we will have a season of moderate rain in the next few months.
