I missed the beach this weekend!!!

Looking forward to some sunshine soon

The same I feel bout the weather in Russia...won't miss it for sure

Jag what is wrong with you? hehe j/k....I hate summer....the sun, the heat...sweat....ewwww

Zam u don't sweet if u don't wear too much clothes

My god. Don't mean to be rude, but you guys freaking out about the rain
sound like my town when it starts to snow; we just can't handle the shit
like north Sweden. We freak out and start to write big articles about the
"DANGEROUS FREAKING SNOW!", when it really isn't that bad. It's just a
part of the climate of Sweden which comes by ones a year, but still we act
and write about it like it was something new and the biggest catastrophy
ever in history.

it isnt the same Burken, in Dubai rain is like a miracle. It doesnt happen before. No idea why it does now. But whatever the reason is, Im enjoying it!

It's amazing what a couple of drops of rain will do, Constantine is now dreaming of 4 seasons, no doubt we will have snow (via MoE)

don't spoil the fun..will ya?
now let it hail

FYI, for all those people freaking out about the rain in Dubai. It's absolutely normal at this time of year, we do in fact have a rainy week or so every year.

No big deal.

still raining???

rain no more...

Sorry Chocs, whilst it is normal to have a little rain at this time of year, it is certainly not normal in this quantity, the last time I can remember rain like this is +/- 8 years ago.

rite, it does rain for 1 week every year, but its never been raining all day long! On sat me & my mates were out for picnic... & it wouldnt stop raining!
wooho it was fun, rain & playing hand ball

I've been in Dubai foe 10 months and yet to see rain fall (away each time, this weekend and sometime back in February)
