The United Arab Emirates (UAE) experienced another day of intense rainfall on Tuesday, October 21, 2025, as a persistent low-pressure system continued to affect the region. The relentless downpour transformed mountain roads and wadis into rushing rivers, with videos circulating online showcasing the dramatic scenes. The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) had earlier forecasted increased cloud cover and rainfall in the eastern and southeastern parts of the country, with the low-pressure system expected to bring cooler temperatures months before the official start of winter. The heavy rains caused water to cascade off cliffs and rocks, forming pools and mini waterfalls, while also raising concerns about potential rockfalls. Authorities have repeatedly warned motorists and pedestrians to avoid mountainous areas during such unstable weather conditions, emphasizing the risks of property damage, injuries, and even fatalities. The UAE’s mountainous regions, typically arid, have been significantly impacted by the unseasonal weather, highlighting the need for caution and preparedness.
