Rain in Qaisumah: What You Need to Know
Qaisumah is a town in the Eastern Province near Hafar Al Batin, historically significant for its airbase used during the 1991 Gulf War. Dammam and the wider Eastern Province coast sit on the flat Gulf shoreline, with a hot desert climate and average annual rainfall of roughly 80-100mm concentrated almost entirely in winter.
Rain here is driven by winter frontal systems crossing from the Mediterranean and occasionally interacting with Gulf moisture, producing shorter, less violent events than the Red Sea Trough storms that hit Jeddah, but still capable of urban flooding given the flat terrain. The Gulf coast's low elevation and flat gradient mean rainwater has almost no natural slope to drain along, so even moderate rain can pool on roads for hours.
