Weather of Arabia - With the onset of summer every year, Kuwait and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia frequently suffer from strong northern winds, which are known as "Al-Bawarih winds", and the east of the Kingdom is considered the most affected by the Al-Bawarih winds, some of whose gusts sometimes reach 110 km / h , causing the formation of dust storms, which carry tons of sand with them to dump them on the roads and hide their features and besiege the vehicles on them, in a phenomenon known as "sand creep".
Here, the memory takes us back to the beginning of the second third of June 2021, when the State of Kuwait and northern Saudi Arabia were affected by strong northwesterly winds, some of whose gusts reached the limits of 110 km / h, according to the meteorological stations there, which led to the formation of dust storms and sand encroachment. From desert areas, burying some roads and trapping vehicles.
The authorities in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia have initiated several measures to address this problem, including stabilizing sand and soil by planting trees that act as windbreaks and increasing green vegetation to reduce sand encroachment, in addition to educating residents about the importance of preserving the environment and limiting its pollution.
The following scenes are of the sand storm that struck the region in the beginning of the second third of June 2021:
