I am just wondering what Nigerians would have been saying online if this had happened in any of our airports.

Only 2hours rain is a record rainfall ?
U can never see any sign of drainage in UAE cuz dey dont really make adequate preparation for rainfall shallom
That's a record rainfall.

The clowns dropping ridiculous comments, UAE is better than Nigeria.

The rainfall in Nigeria doesn't have to break record before your roads gets flooded. [/quote]

Flydubai said on Tuesday (local time) it temporally suspended all of its flights departing from Dubai until Wednesday morning due to bad weather, the UAE state news agency WAM reported.

"All flydubai flights scheduled for departure from Dubai this evening (16 April) have been canceled effective immediately until 10:00 (Dubai local time) on 17 April. During this period, passengers who do not have Dubai as their final destination will not be accepted for travel," a flyDubai spokesperson was quoted as saying.

Dubai International Airport (DXB) had been temporarily diverting arriving flights on Tuesday evening until weather conditions improve, while keeping the departures operational.

The website for Dubai airport, one of the world's busiest, shows dozens of flights on April 16 delayed or cancelled, with affected destinations including India, Pakistan, Saudi and the United Kingdom.

Adverse weather hit other locations in the Gulf Peninsula, including Oman, where at least 18 people have been killed due to heavy rains in recent days, its state news agency said.

This is a massive rainstorm in Dubai... Truly massive, record rainfalls due to climate change have kicked in. Drainages would have to be made bigger to evacuate water via underground pipes to reduce flooding of the main cities that would be affected.

Greenhouse gases have to be immediately contained by the major countries of the world that are the major emitters of the greenhouse gases causing climate change year-in, year-out.
