Cyclone Phet Hits Oman: 40+ Killed

It's amazing that this all occured only a 4 hour drive from Dubai!

Emirati Movie: City of Life

Great film that portrays how some locals and expats experience life in Dubai. If you have lived here, spent time here, are planning a move, or just curious, you must see this film!

By the way, the cyclone made a direct hit on Oman, then turned towards Pakistan.

Cyclone Phet Approaches

If the storm continues on the present track, the weather here in UAE will go downhill tomorrow and get worse on Saturday. Masirah Island Oman is already experiencing winds sustained at 75 mph gusting to 100 and more than a foot of rain has fallen since 1pm. Fortunately, everyone was evacuated. It might be worth a day trip to the East Coast of UAE just to see the waves!
