For us, here in Dubai, rains are always welcome. Yes, we actually get tired of those sunny days that seem to last 365 days a year. So, today was our lucky day as early in the morning we were blessed with rain and Dubai peeps loved it.

Now, the rains happened so early in the morning that most weren’t able to capture it, but some did.

Though it rained for just a few minutes, it was pretty dramatic.

Dubai twitter. Who else got up at 5 AM by the sounds of the rain and storm? I did. My bed is near the balcony and the plants out were surviving the heavy winds. Christmas lights were hitting against the walls. Had to step out to see if everything was ok. Was scary.
