It started around noon time - just the usual heavy shower of these last three days . We expected it to stop within one hour . But it kept raining with a lots of thunder and lightnings until 4 pm . Then little rivers were created in our street . But it was fun - at lower parts of the city it was worse .Water level one meter at some parts of Doha .
One of our child was taking part in an event . The school bus was supposed to get her back around two pm . But the tunnels were all closed and the bus could not get there in timely manner . When it managed to get near the modern building of Education City area then it could not get closer to the building as it was flooded .
Finally she arrived home six hours later than it was planned . Well , it was an adventurous day .
And the rain is not over !

It is said that the amount of one year's rain has already hit the country today .
It was really a very heavy downpour for hours .
Due to the severe weather, QF HQ and all QF centers and entities at Education City will be closed tomorrow. Having assessed the impact of heavy rain on roads in Doha, we’ve taken this decision to ensure the safety of all members of our community, which is our top priority.
