How heavy rains affected life in UAE

The rain could affect all areas of the country over the period, although showers will mostly be confined to coastal and eastern areas. "There could be some flash floods in the north of the country on Tuesday, not in Abu Dhabi," said a forecaster for the centre. "The UAE is being affected by an upper atmospheric trough of low pressure, that’s why we’re getting rain in this period," she said. NCM posted a video of light rain falling on Abu Dhabi’s Corniche on Sunday.
