Despite high hopes, Qatar’s capital did not see rain on Friday after all. The nation’s meteorology department had forecast thunderstorms over parts of the country.
Yesterday afternoon, residents reported spotting rain in the south and east of Qatar:

Though Doha ultimately didn’t get any precipitation, many residents enjoyed the clouds that moved over the city.
Once again, the MET is forecasting rain for parts of Qatar today, but whether Doha will see it remains to be seen.
Were you hoping for rain yesterday? Thoughts?
