Unexpected rainfall lashed parts of Dubai and Abu Dhabi today leaving residents stranded due to severe water logging across several areas.
All schools and universities in the UAE will be closed tomorrow after a storm swept through the country. The Ministry of Education made the announcement after extreme weather caused chaos on the roads and damaged property.
While some people took to Twitter to complain about flooded living rooms, most enjoyed the weather, and some pointed out how unprepared the Dubai government was for such a situation:
