يرجى توخي الحذر في ظل هذه الأجواء حيث تستمر الأمطار الرعدية في مناطق متفرقة من البلاد يصاحبها رياح قوية تتجاوز ٢٥ عقدة وتدني في الرؤية بسبب الغبار ، نسأل الله أن يجعلها أمطار خير ورحمة .#الوسمي #قطر pic.twitter.com/Nsy3Dmjn7l

Earlier, Qatar’s Met Department had said in a tweet that there were cloudy skies with scattered thunderstorms happening in the country, especially in Doha and the eastern and northern coasts. The officials had said that the winds were also exceptionally strong in these areas.

It had also warned people to not engage in marine activities until the wet weather had passed.

The Met Department also tweeted out regarding rains in the Souq Waqef area. What was the situation in your area? Was it raining? Were there any floods reported?

People took to twitter to share their rain experiences. Here are some of them.
