Sally StrangeGmorning. I'm gonna greet you all the same way my spouse greeted me today:
"Dubai is still flooded."
Rejin@SallyStrange I had no idea!
@rejinl I had a vague idea, but I hadn't thought about it in a couple weeks. Two major human built environment factors contributing: a lack of drainage infrastructure, and the fact that so much area has been paved over with impermeable pavement.

@SallyStrange I was surprised to read that their average annual rainfall is only 10 inches, so clearly they aren't prepared for it.
