Rain in Yanbu

It was a little shower in Yanbu last Thursday. The rain only took 20 to 30 minutes but yet made some streets flooded. The last rain in Yanbu was on October 2006.


Here rain was greatly welcomed by the local as it is unusual phenomenon in this country. We can see children going out to the street and playing in the rain. We can see smiles and happiness on their faces if there is rain pour.



Since now is winter season, Yanbu sometimes has it temperature goes down as low as 10-12 Cel in the morning. According to weather forecasting this year, kingdom will experience unusual temperature. Like Hail, the northen region above Riyadh even is predicted to have snow during winter this year.


1. Al-Qâri'ah (the striking Hour i.e. the Day of Resurrection), 2. What is the striking (Hour)? 3. And what will make you know what the striking (Hour) is? 4. It is a Day whereon mankind will be like moths scattered about, 5. And the mountains will be like carded wool, 6. Then as for him whose balance (of good deeds) will be heavy,7. He will live a pleasant life (in Paradise). 8. But as for him whose balance (of good deeds) will be light, 9. He will have his home in Hawiyah (pit, i.e. Hell). 10. And what will make you know what it is? 11. (It is) a hot blazing Fire!


[Al-Qariah(101:600)]
