Like how some countries get ‘snow days’ when it snows too much, in Dubai, school kids get ‘rain days’.

So despite the roads flooding, and the city turning to a standstill, once the rain starts to fall, Dubai students are just hoping it doesn’t stop.

TikTok, the current GEM for prostration (it’s Thursday, no judgement please) has literally thousands of #DubaiRain videos that went live yesterday during the rain, but we reckon this one, by @Meh-Jones tops the lot. Why? ‘Cus it’s just soooo relatable.
