Scattered rain and thunderstorms observed across Qatar

Scattered rain of varying intensity is being observed across large parts of Qatar on Monday, November 9, with some rainfall becoming thundery at times, according to Qatar Meteorology Department.

The department shared the latest weather radar imagery showing rain clouds extending across several areas of the country and urged the public to remain cautious as weather conditions continue to change.

Rain affecting most areas

According to Qatar Meteorology, scattered rainfall of varying intensity has been observed over most parts of the country.

Some of the rain cells may develop into thunderstorms at times, with changing conditions possible across different locations.

The latest radar imagery shared by the department showed widespread rain activity over northern, central and western areas of Qatar.

Thunderstorms may bring sudden strong winds

Current weather information from the Qatar Civil Aviation Authority also indicates thunderstorms associated with sudden strong winds both onshore and offshore.

Residents are therefore advised to exercise caution, particularly during periods of thunderstorm activity.

Motorists should reduce speed where necessary, maintain a safe distance from other vehicles and avoid driving through areas of accumulated water.

The public is also encouraged to follow Qatar Meteorology Department and official government channels for the latest forecasts and weather warnings as conditions develop.
