Di Damn Wedda!


Seriously
What is up with the weather?
سرايات They Say! [Sarrayat: Sara Who? Sara when? Sara WHYYY!?]
Surely we're going into summer and that's change of weather we're experience, all respected and understood. I have no problems with Dust, Humidity, rain, overcast, hail and gust all in one day. My main problem is no1 seems to know. That's simply unacceptable since the Beach & Island season has officially started!
I rememeber when I lived in the U.S. we'd know exactly when it was gonna snow, how long was it gonna snow and how many feet it was.
After failed attempts on counting on accuweather, MOI, Weather underground & Kuwait Airport's website I've come to wonder: Is there such a thing as reliable weather forecast in this country? Why does everything have to be a damn secret? Even the bloody weather is a secret!
Luckily, I've been previllaged last 2 Summers with a secret واسطة [Wasta]in Airport's Civil Aviation Weather station. Well I used to get the real deal, latest reports accurate up to the hour. I remember the guy would tell me when to get off the island and head back to the city and we'd miss the storm if we stick with his forecast. That worked 95% of the time. That guy was good. The problem is if you need to get through to him..it will take you at least 30mins waiting time. Anyways, if you manage to get through all you need is to pop the magic question:

حنكبّر؟ ولا مشحنكبرشي؟

I don't think we have a "spring" in Kuwait.. it's just a lost season we refer to as سرايات

your post reminded me of a Kuwaiti kids song (or something like it):
يالكوس هود ما نبيك اليلة.. اللية
نبي الشميل والهبوب الزينة.. الزينة

& welcome back

I gotta agree with u. It's the same shit in Dubai. We never have a clue about the weather.
We find out once it gets super windy, flooded and like the last time, the ceiling fell off at the Ibn Batuta mall food court (haha) because of a stupid rainstorm which in our part of the world, rainstorms are tsunamis. I mean come on, where are we living? lol
