LIKE IT'S 2008 |

Oman hit by storms; 6 killed
AP
MUSCAT RESCUE crews in Oman have moved patients from a flooded hospital and are warning about more torrents as deadly rains lash the Arabian peninsula nation.
Media reports on Wednesday quoted a police official, Ali Al Kasbi, as saying at least six deaths have been blamed on the storms coming off the Indian Ocean this week.
Rains are not uncommon in Oman, which can be affected by seasonal monsoons or cyclones. The latest downpours have caused flash floods and swamped lowlying areas. At Muscat’s Al Nahda Hospital, patients were moved after water reached knee deep in some wards.
