Kind of reminds me of home

I called my mommy yesterday and it was -39 C at my home, I'm very happy that Dubai is nothing like home

The rain in Dubai falls mainly from the sky

Drive safe people!

It's flooding here and reminds me of home.

Is it cold? Can not anyone picture the rain from the window or something?

mashallah mashallah..keep raining...we love it...

...yeah...

...just staying the whole day at home...listening to good music..
cooking...eating..eating...and eating..and singing...karaoke time...

Heard a DJ on the radio tonight.

"Don't go to Sharjah, whether you live there or not".

Must be bad

It does typically flood in Sharjah when it rains, due to the absense of storm drainage.

I think that's sound advice regardless of the weather.

I was in Deira City Centre the other day, and this national guy dropped his wallet. I noticed this and rushed over and picked it up, he hadn't realised he lost it.

He said "thank you my friend, and for your honesty I will repay you with some sound advice.... whatever you do, don't go to Sharjah!"

I said "why, is something bad going to happen? Terrorist attack? Catastrophe? Something??!?!"

And he said "No, it's a shithole."

True. The reason? Cuz of all the shitheads from Dubai coming and clogging it up Really wish all the Dubai plates would stay in Dubai!

Still I love the new corniche area since I dont go into the belly of Sharjah!

Funny, because I really do wish all the Sharjah plates would stay in Sharjah, because they're the most dangerous drivers on Dubai roads!

sharjah was totally flooded today...but dubai wasnt..speaks a lot about the drainage system in Sharjah..

Youve got to be joking. The majority of crack drivers have Dubai plates and Abu Dhabi as well... There arent that many Shj plates out in any case.. maybe all the Dubai plates should be forced to be in Dubai. then youd have a right fun time with the gridlocked traffic huh?

Hehe, thats not what I meant. Shj was flooding, no doubt! I meant that Deira, Bur Dubai and a few other areas were flooded too..

Anyway, not here to start a flame, just got a bit annoyed by some silly peoples' constant bickering of shj

yep yep outside city center

WOW is it still raining there?

I still think you guys are lucky. You only have like 5 days of rain a year anyway so make the most of it! We on the other hand are a little sick of the rain cos we get about 3 months of it a year not to mention how cold it gets...thats why Im coming over for Xmas & Eid...hehehehe

Can't wait!

Those pics of the flooding do a look a little scary, I didn't think it would be that bad. Maybe you need the 'Dubai Barrier Reef'? hehehehe
