FLOOD

During the 2nd week here, Dubai was due for its yearly rain. Lets get Dubai's weather clear. Every day is sunny and hot. However, once a year during the winter, they get a week of rain. Yes, that's right, a whole week straight. Since this is all the rain they get, storm drains are not even a consideration in city planning. Here are the results of such a system:
