Summary
The UAE has issued an alert for heavy rains for two days.
Indian airlines have issued an advisory for flights to and from Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi due to adverse weather conditions. IndiGo, SpiceJet and Vistara airlines have issued passenger advisory alert.
Heavy rains and thunderstorms lashed the UAE on Thursday, May 2, two weeks after Dubai was hit by unprecedented storms that paralysed the emirate for days. On May 1, the country’s National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority (NCEMA) elevated the readiness and preparedness levels of the national system to deal with the situation.
While these rains are expected to be less severe than the unprecedented downpour that hit the country last month, the public is urged to take precautions. On April 14-15, extreme rainfall battered regions of the Arabian Peninsula, with Dubai experiencing the heaviest rains on record since 1949.
“Due to adverse weather conditions in Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi, our flight operations are impacted. Please keep a track of your flight status before leaving for the airport,” IndiGo has put a post on X.
