Windstorm in Doha - be careful today

The wind is pretty intense outside today. Amadshk tweeted this picture of building material that looks like it fell off a construction site (h/t dohanews).

Also got these pictures from the Pearl Qatar - visibility is really low and the blades of someones balcony fan has been ripped off by the wind.

A drive around Doha shows lots of street advertising and flags that looked as if they're ready to fly away. Stay safe and keep your eyes open until things settle down.

O Allaah, I ask You for it’s goodness, the good within it, and the good it was sent with, and I take refuge with You from it’s evil, the evil within it, and from the evil it was sent with.’
