Saudi Arabia braces for heavy rains, hail, and dust storms – SUCH TV

Torrential rains have caused chaos in Saudi Arabia’s southwestern Asir region, where flash floods swept away dozens of vehicles.

Saudi media reports that the National Center for Meteorology (NCM) has issued a severe weather alert, warning of heavy downpours, thunderstorms, and potential flooding across multiple regions, including Najran, Jazan, Asir, Al-Baha, Makkah, and Madinah.

The forecast also includes strong winds, hailstorms, and sandstorms, which could significantly reduce visibility in parts of the Kingdom.

Authorities have appealed to residents to take precautionary measures, avoid flood-prone areas, and adhere to official safety advisories as the inclement weather persists.
