Atypically heavy rains in the United Arab Emirates on Monday and Tuesday caused flooding, flight cancellations and school closures. Vehicles were abandoned on highways like this one in Dubai.

Schools and businesses were closed across the United Arab Emirates after about a year’s worth of rain fell in a single day. Flooding has also disrupted travel at Dubai International Airport.
