It's been 2 days the dust storm covered the Manama City. I've been working here almost 4 months, the invasion of dust storm will happen average twice in a month in Bahrain.The most serious case was happened last month, on 16th May. The dust storm was almost covered the whole Manama City and even the sun has been disappeared. You might not able to imagine what does I meant "SERIOUS", see the photos below and you will know how "serious" it was .........
Wind blowing strong & signboard was unclear.
The end of this road is an "island divider". This photo was taken at about 60 meter away from it.
Photo taken about 40 meter away from the "island divider".

Kenny,
ya, bro....finally...i'm back to KL tmr, what abt u??
wahhh! Is very very "SERIOUS"....
how come like that???
Sharon,
The main reason is there are not much tress and grass growing there due to hot and dry weather, and mostly all the ground is sand. The wind will bring all the sand / dust into the air when it pass through the land due to the ground is nothing "holding" them. Well, that's part of life for living in middle east's countries.
Sharon,
Typing error...should be "trees" and not "tress".
