First storm of the year

I was woken up at 04:00 Sunday by an horrendous rain storm with thunder and lightning. This is the first time I have seen it rain here in Qatar, since comming here in June. The storm left large puddles of rain water laying aroung the camp site and parts of the Shell Plant. Rain and loud thunder storms also woke people up the following two mornings.The picture on the left is of us driving through about a foot of water, after about an hour of rain. The picture on the right is a Dolphin plant shutdown, probably as a result of the storm. Wednesday was a nice hot day again, and a some of the water has evaporated. I am now ready to go to Doha for my early Thursday morning flight back to London. Time to go!
