Saudi Arabia Floods- Climate Change Impact #viral #shorts

Saudi Arabia is best known for its vast deserts, stunning dunes and scorching heat for the majority of the year. Yet, in a dramatic shift in weather patterns, parts of the country are grappling with extreme floods following an unprecedented spell of heavy rainfall. The kingdom’s capital, Riyadh, witnessed many cars being swept away due to the floods.

Gushing waters transformed the dry Wadis of Saudi Arabia into rivers, resulting in unusual and devastating floods across the region. From its lush southwestern mountains to its vast reddish deserts, the sudden deluge took residents by surprise.

Experts predict that the recent climate trend in the Middle East could be due to a western disturbance coming from the Mediterranean and also due to an anti-cyclone activity, a key factor during the floods in Dubai and Riyadh
