Gulf states in the Middle East (UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Oman) have experienced above-average rainfall and extreme weather events this spring.
Major Flooding: In March 2026, the region—particularly the UAE—was hit by intense storms that caused widespread flooding and disrupted international travel at hubs like Dubai International Airport.
Spring Transitions: April has continued this trend with scattered showers and "yellow alert" weather patterns. Meteorological centers in the region note that while spring is a transition period, the intensity of these systems has been higher than historical norms.
Forecast: A rapid transition to El Niño and a positive Indian Ocean Dipole is expected to keep conditions wetter than normal for the Middle East through late spring.
