Luckily my area wasn't affected that much; since its high in the mountains. However some interesting facts i read for an article was that pakistan has the highest "sweet water" discharge to the sea/oceans; which means only one thing... "More investment in building dams" Thanks Ahmed, for such an informative snapshot. Luckily my area wasn’t affected that much; since its high in the mountains.

This is similar to Southern KSA and Yemen summer rain. That could be the reason for Sinai summer rain. Hi,

This is called a waterspout (tornado on water). As you can see it is a small short-lived weather system but it can result in damages. Tornadoes are possible any place during strong thunderstorms. And probably they happened this year but nobody noticed them. Or how do you know it has not been happening every year in the red sea. We had a few of waterspouts in the UAE last 2-3 years and a tornado as well but in the desert. These tornadoes CAN'T be linked to Jeddah flood in my opinion. To start with, this waterspout didn't happen in the same week. Just seen the video.

Tornadoes are possible during a very strong thunderstorm which rarely happens in Egypt. Tornadoes are very small short-lived weather systems. Maybe they happened long time ago in Egypt or maybe not.
