Yellow Warning for Severe Weather in Riyadh Region and Civil Defense Calls for Caution

Currently, weather activity continues in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, as the National Center of Meteorology issued a yellow warning for the governorates of the Riyadh region. The warning includes activity in surface winds, almost no visibility, hail and torrential rain. The affected areas include: “Al-Aflaj, Al-Hariq, Al-Kharj, Al-Diriyah, and many other governorates.”

The expected rain is not the light type, but rather heavy rain that may lead to the formation of torrents. And the matter is not limited to rain and wind only, as meteorological forecasts also include limited vision as a result of the raised dust, and this means that driving cars may become more dangerous. The warning is not limited to a short period, as the expected rainy condition will continue until eleven in the evening. Everyone should take matters seriously, and be especially careful while driving or going out.

Civil defense calls for caution

Not only the National Center of Meteorology warned of this situation, the Civil Defense joined the warnings, stressing the need for extreme caution and staying away from the streams of valleys and open places. Everyone needs to stay in safe places especially during heavy winds and rains. In these times, it becomes clear how important it is to be prepared and aware to face these weather conditions. Therefore, we recommend that you follow up the weather reports periodically, and take the necessary measures to ensure safety. As the saying goes: “Caution is a duty, and safety is above all else.”
