Saudi Arabia’s civil defence authority on Sunday called on people to be careful ahead of turbulent weather conditions across the region from Monday until Friday.
Lt Col Mohammed Al Hammadi, a civil defence spokesman, asked the public to abide by government instructions and stay away from places that could be flooded easily, to ensure public safety.
Based on reports from the National Center of Meteorology, the authorities issued weather warnings with a high risk of heavy rain and brisk winds, that may cause flooding across several regions in the country.
Saudis are using the change in weather to showcase the diversity of the kingdom by sharing videos of rainfall in their cities on social media.
Light rain is expected in the the Eastern Province. Heavy rain and torrential flows are expected in Makkah, Asir, Al Baha, Jazan and Najran. Less or moderate rain is expected in Madinah, Qassim, Hail, the Northern Borders Province, Al Jawf, and Tabuk.

Farage on Muslim Brotherhood
Nigel Farage told Reform's annual conference that the party will proscribe the Muslim Brotherhood if he becomes Prime Minister.
"We will stop dangerous organisations with links to terrorism operating in our country," he said. "Quite why we've been so gutless about this – both Labour and Conservative – I don't know.
“All across the Middle East, countries have banned and proscribed the Muslim Brotherhood as a dangerous organisation. We will do the very same.”
It is 10 years since a ground-breaking report into the Muslim Brotherhood by Sir John Jenkins.
Among the former diplomat's findings was an assessment that “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” has “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
The prime minister at the time, David Cameron, who commissioned the report, said membership or association with the Muslim Brotherhood was a "possible indicator of extremism" but it would not be banned.
