Several areas in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia were hit by extreme weather today.
Hail, heavy rain, and several overflowing wadis pose a threat to residents.
Asir Province, one of the most rainfall-prone areas in the kingdom, has been hit by repeated flooding in recent weeks, with roads submerged, communities displaced, and rescue operations ongoing.
Today, as the rainy season begins, several areas in the province were hit by heavy rain and damaging hail.
Heavy rainfall in mountainous areas, inadequate infrastructure, and changes in water flow increase the risk of flash floods.
Hail was also reported in Abha.
This is a common weather phenomenon in the Asir highlands, especially during seasonal changes or extreme weather.
The hail often covers roads and mountains with a white, snow-like coating, creating a stark contrast in the otherwise arid region.
Videos widely circulated on social media show the significant impact of the extreme weather patterns affecting these areas.
This hailstorm was caused by Cumulonimbus clouds that brought very cold temperatures, often below 10 degrees Celsius, in contrast to the heat in other parts of Saudi Arabia.
According to a national weather bulletin issued today, there are currently varying levels of thunderstorm activity in various regions, including Riyadh, Mecca, and Asir province.
The public is advised to be vigilant during the peak rainfall period, due to the high risk of flash floods in dry areas.
