Heavy rains in Saudi Arabia’s coastal city of Jeddah on Thursday delayed flights, forced school closures and shut the road to Mecca, Islam’s holiest city, state media reported.
Jeddah, a city of roughly four million people located close to the Red Sea, is often referred to as the “gateway to Mecca”, where millions perform the Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages each year.

Images posted to social media on Thursday showed cars being swept along streets through raging torrents of water.
The city’s King Abdulaziz International Airport said that “due to weather conditions, the departure of some flights has been delayed” and urged passengers to contact carriers for up-to-date schedules.
The official Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported before dawn that schools in the city would be closed, as rains were forecast to continue throughout the day.
Schools were also closed in the nearby towns of Rabigh and Khulais “to preserve the safety of male and female students”, SPA said.
The kingdom’s schools are in the middle of final exams, yet schools had already been closed nationwide on Wednesday after King Salman declared a holiday following Saudi Arabia’s shock victory over Argentina in the World Cup.
Winter rainstorms and flooding occur almost every year in Jeddah, where residents have long decried poor infrastructure. Floods killed 123 people in the city in 2009.

In November 2017, Jeddah police received 11,000 calls in one morning following heavy downpours in the city.
Last year, a plunge in temperatures in Saudi Arabia also resulted in floods in many parts of Jeddah. Saudis used the hashtag #جده_الان (Jeddah now) to share videos of the extreme weather conditions, and the same hashtag was in use on Thursday.

Looking at these flooded cars, I had strange dreams last night – me and our family was in the car on a busy road, talking about not having the shots nor any luciferase in our blood, and still having our God genes (VMAT2). But, I could physically see green “glows” from the vehicles of vaxxinated drivers and perhaps also their children.
Then, we (in a big truck) narrowly escaped a car crash that was caused by a vaxxed glowing driver, and suddenly we and our truck was safe in the dark (but cleared out just enough to see the trees around us) so we did not d1e. We had a big vacation to rural NYS where we were reunited with my brother and nana and I went down her old house’s stairs – the SAME relatives that foolishly took the vaxxines despite being firm disciples of God. Through these dreams, I know that God will soon remove the poisons our 2 relatives were injected with, and he is protecting our and their God genes from ever being deleted or corrupted.
I Pet Goat 2 – a pen1s is still seen on the chalkboard, even when George Bush was president, predating Obama. “Fool me once, shame on you, fool you twice, shame on me.” Both sides of idi0cy keep worshipping flags/nations as communizts praised Stalin/Marx/etc.
There is no salvation in idolatry/flag worship/nation worship let alone for Mystery Babylon (USA and East Asia): https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/schools-are-becoming-hotbeds-of-political-conflict-especially-in-purple-districts/ar-AA14IDaO?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=da86c5ce178a4b0eb1af2f90be1a7b3f
By that, someone is holding “Teach hope not fear” with the Mystery Babylon flag on it. These “culture wars” are being staged by both parties to divide, distract, and destroy their citizens. Where was the anti-Disney outcry by Faux News before their staged “don’t say G” to help falsechrist Desantis gain admiration from the sheeple. Same people are telling you to visit pro-witchcraft Universal Studios with witchcraft-filled H.P. because its creator, an anti-men, anti-mother radfem is a “hero for women’s rights”. Nonsense!
Surprise surprise! You have 3 posts on this article about extreme flooding in Jeddah. And nothing about the subject. That’s a TROLL. The question is do you get paid to do it??
Drought and Deluge continues to increase. As does Earthquakes, Volcanos and Bolides. Something huge going on, so they distract us with the Covid 19 hoax and anything else they can throw at us. Anything so we don’t see the elephant in the closet.
Shame it doesn’t affect the ones whom are causing it all.
Nobody is causing the Earth Changes. It’s the approach of Planet X. That’s the elephant in the closet they are desperate to hide as long as possible. Until it’s too late for people to prepare. Claiming Man is causing any of this is spin by the Cabal/Satanists. Anyone pushing it is working for them.
