Severe Dust Waves And Sand Storms Hit Parts Of Saudi Arabia
Recent days have seen social media flooded with videos capturing a massive sandstorm sweeping across various regions of Saudi Arabia, especially areas surrounding the capital, Riyadh. The storm has led to towering dust clouds blanketing cities, resulting in significantly reduced visibility and creating hazardous conditions for motorists.
The National Center of Meteorology (NCM) had previously issued forecasts predicting widespread sandstorms across multiple regions of the Kingdom
These forecasts highlighted the potential for such weather events to disrupt daily life and advised residents to take necessary precautions
In response to the deteriorating visibility, authorities have urged drivers to exercise extreme caution. The reduced visibility poses increased risks on the roads, making vigilant and careful driving essential during such conditions.
The storm’s impact has transformed the skies into a sandy haze, with the dense dust affecting air quality and obscuring sunlight

Citizens and residents are encouraged to stay informed through official channels and adhere to safety advisories issued by authorities
