QNA
Doha
The Qatar Meteorology Department (QMD) has warned of thundershowers accompanied by strong winds on Friday in many areas of the country.
The QMD had earlier forecast that the country will experience yet another spell of unstable weather and rain from Thursday until Monday.
The Met office has urged the public to take extra care as thunderstorms may be accompanied by hail at times and strong winds that could raise dust and cause a sudden drop in visibility. It has advised people to avoid going to the sea, in view of the weather fluctuations.
"Try to stay indoors and make sure to close car windows if you are driving to avoid the risk of lightning," the QMD said.
"Try to stay away from open water as much as possible and if you are swimming outdoors, stop immediately and head to a safe place. Avoid standing in high areas or on the roofs or under trees and electricity poles. Unplug the power supply of home appliances to protect them from thunderbolts."
Friday's offshore warning is strong wind, high sea and thundershowers.
