Autumn is coming... Fog in Dubai...



Twice a year, Dubai is haunted by the fog. This fog is so dence that one can make horror movie! I can barely see the next building. Devour the entire golf course and the world behind it  :)
It usually lasts 3 days and after those misty days the weather changes, the temperature drops about 10 degrees, or increase  10 degrees. 

Autumn is coming, autumn!

In addition to the amazing views, it also causes enormous danger on the roads. This morning in Dubai took place 141 accidents! Police received 1,323 calls due to this case. Next at least 10 accidents were recorded on the Dubai - Abu Dhabi highway. In 2008, at least three people were killed and nearly 350 injured in a horrific 60 vehicle pile-up on the Abu Dhabi-Dubai highway near Ghantoot. This accident was because of fog.
