More sandstorms throughout July, warns meteorologist
Published Date: July 03, 2011 

KUWAIT: Residents of Kuwait recovering from last weekend's heavy sandstorms 
should prepare themselves for more of the same, with further suffocatingly 
dusty weather set to afflict the country for the rest of July, according to a 
local meteorologist. "Waves of sandstorms of varying intensities are expected 
throughout July, with less intensity in the first couple of weeks of the 
month," said expert meteorologist Saleh Al-Ujairi.

Explaining that the weekend's sandstorms were caused by northwesterly winds 
blowing from desert areas in Jordan, Iraq and Saudi Arabia, Al-Ujairi added 
that this year's unusually heavy sandstorms have several causes, with recent 
rainless winters, the almost complete lack of vegetation in Kuwait and heavy 
military activity in desert areas loosening the sand and making it easier for 
it to be blown away by strong winds being the principal culprits.

The weather forecast is set to improve for Ramadan, however, with Al-Ujairi 
predicting that the weather would be hot and dry by early August and would 
remain that way throughout the holy month, with daytime temperatures expected 
to rise to around 50 degrees Celsius (122? Fahrenheit) for the month.

Meanwhile, the weekend's sandstorms saw movements of shipping traffic in the 
Gulf suspended for hours, but failed to affected air traffic, with Kuwait 
International Airport reportedly operating as normal.

The effects on fishing, with fishing vessels prevented from setting out by the 
almost total lack of visibility in the Gulf, saw fish prices at the local 
market rise as a result, with some customers complaining that the market 
inspectors' failure to work weekends meant that the retailers were able to 
increase their prices without worrying about facing any penalties. - Agencie
