Flooding In Dubai After Heavy Rain by Nobody: 3:13pm On Nov 30, 2012 
Several parts of Dubai and Sharjah were flooded following overnight rain. The rain started on Thursday evening and continues in most parts of the UAE. 

The National Center of Meteorology and Seismology (NCMS) office have forecast rain for tomorrow in different parts of the UAE.

According to the NCMS forecast, it will be, “cloudy weather in general and the cloud amount will increase over different areas associated with some towering clouds with a chance of scattered rain. The wind will  continue to be moderate to fresh, especially over the sea. The sea will be rough in general.”

People were seen struggling through water ponds and flooded streets in Sharjah, as well as in Bur Dubai and Garhoud. A number of motor accidents have been reported in many places in the Emirates leading to heavy traffic blocks.

The UAE’s Roads and Transport Authority have advised motorists to drive slowly and cautiously during the rainy season.

It seems this flood really means business with Nigerians; the other time it flooded our houses and followed some big men to their houses in the village, now it is also following them to Dubai were they are now investing our looted funds on mansions. God dey sha.

That is flooding because it is beyond what they see everyday.

In nija what would have made it abnormal is how clean d water is.
