‘Do Not Panic Over US Navy Warning On Rains’


KUWAIT CITY, Nov 16: Meteorology experts in Kuwait have advised the public not to panic due to a warning issued by the US Navy on the possibility that the country and other areas in the Gulf will experience heavy rains, which may cause floods in the coming days. The experts revealed Kuwait will witness light to moderate rains in the next few days, asserting that it is expected this time of the year. One of the experts, Dr Saleh Al-Ojairi, explained it is just seasonal rain and there is no possibility of flooding. According to Director of the Meteorology Department in the Directorate General for Civil Aviation (DGCA) Mohammed Karam, the cumulus clouds will form Sunday night until dawn on Monday. He said this will increases chances of rain and other areas may witness thunderstorms; affirming the weather will improve on Wednesday.

Meanwhile following the warning issued by the US Navy, the concerned authorities, led by Kuwait Fire Service Directorate (KFSD) and the Medical Emergency Department, alerted the marine and land centers. Deputy Director of Fire Service and Human Resource Affairs in KFSD Brigadier Khalid Al-Mekrad confirmed the directorate has mobilized its land and marine centers to be ready starting from Sunday to Thursday. He disclosed the marine and rubber lifeboats have been distributed to be ready for emergencies. He said the fire service centers will work round the clock until it is clear the country is out of danger.

He added the directorate will implement its contingency plan; asserting all the necessary steps have been taken to ensure the institution quickly responds to emergency calls in case of heavy rains and floods. On the other hand, Minister of Public Works, Electricity and Water Abdulaziz Abdullatif Al-Ibrahim unveiled his plan to hold a meeting on Sunday with the concerned officials and authorities to discuss preparations for dealing with emergency cases if the predicted heavy rains and flooding occur.

Video: Famous Saudi tower hit by lightning
Lightning struck one of Saudi Arabia’s most famous high-rise towers during bad weather conditions that hit the Gulf Kingdom this week.

A brief YouTube film published in local newspapers showed the Kingdom Tower in the capital Riyadh was illuminated briefly as it was struck by the thunderbolt.

Newspapers said the bolt caused no damage as the Tower is equipped with anti-lightning systems.
