What the desert city of Dubai looks like after its biggest rainfall in 75 years
Cars submerged in raging flood waters, planes taxiing on flooded runways and ankle-deep water at a metro station โ this is what the United Arab Emirates and its desert city of Dubai look after a deluge. Dubai received about as much rain in 24 hours as it usually does in a year

Lol… almost up to the top of the hub caps… ankle deep.. oh my ! Like Britain gets a tiny snow fall in London, or Vancoverites cclosing schools due to "heavy" snow fall, 3 centimeters.. ๐
Just think what is going to happen when everyone tries to use the toilet. They have no sewar system or drainage for all that water. People are going to get malaria or staphylococcus.
Alah is punishing those gold diggers.
Omg rain in a desert
World's most poorly designed city
Vs.
Rain
This is just a casual Monday in Scotland
I guess the cloud seeding worked.
I always thought Dubai was sand dunes
Guess what, it's called a 100 year flood for a reason. On average it happens once in a 100 years. Now if this happened once in a decade, then I would put it down to a new weather pattern.
I know the climate is changing but come on guys let's not use every weather event to jump on the climate change soapbox.
Remember that last time happened, Dubai was a some backwater fishing village. They built their city without cognisance of what 100 year flood line looks like
Nature has power to change everything
Habibi come to Dubai!
Where are the sciene now?
ALLAHU AKBAR
when the holiday comes to you
After desert tourism it's time to swim tourism

Totally 3rd world infrastructure: no sewage system, no drains
