Heavy rainfall on Friday morning, December 19, caused waterlogging and flooding in Dubai and several parts of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). In the wake of the heavy rain, the Dubai police have asked residents to stay indoors. Notably, the heavy downpour in Dubai comes after the record rainfall last year, which left the city flooded. According to a report in AFP, the Dubai police sent alerts to residents' phones which read, "For your safety, please remain cautious as unstable weather conditions are expected in the coming hours, and avoid going out unless it is absolutely necessary until midday on Friday." According to the National Centre of Meteorology in the UAE, a heavy rainfall warning has been issued for Friday, especially in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, as netizens are looking online to get more information about the Dubai weather. Besides the UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia have also issued alerts following a heavy downpour on Thursday, December 18. Multiple videos surfaced online showing waterlogged streets in Dubai after a heavy downpour. It is also reported that the flooding has led to offices giving work-from-home to people in a few parts of the country.
