Arab Weather - Satellite images within the Arab Weather app indicate the formation of cumulonimbus clouds with rain across several areas in the south and east of the Kingdom at this time, accompanied by varying amounts of rainfall and hail in some geographical areas. Some of these showers are also heavy, leading to flash floods and the flow of rivers.

Several areas in the eastern and central Badia, including desert roads, are currently experiencing sandstorms that are significantly reducing horizontal visibility, particularly in and around Ruwaished. The dusty conditions are also likely to extend to parts of major cities in the coming hours.

Recommendations during these unusual weather conditions:

- Beware of sudden downward winds in random areas of the desert and eastern plains.

- Beware of heavy dust waves, especially in desert areas.

Drive carefully on roads that may witness rain.
