Your analysis was accurate in describing unprecedented events. Ibra, Oman, saw historic rainfall and flooding Wednesday night—unlike anything locals have witnessed—causing major property damage. Thankfully, no injuries. 292 mm fell 20–26 Mar, incl. 166 mm last night alone.
Fascinating forecast for Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
Strong to severe thunderstorms are likely Thursday night.
Wind and hail may accompany the strongest storms on an isolated basis. The main risks is heavy, torrential rainfall and localized flooding. Low, but not zero, tornado risk.
To the very large numbers of people who have been in touch from all 4 corners of the globe: Oman appreciates the support you have shown for our efforts to stop the war. Strengthened by your solidarity, Oman reaffirms its call for an immediate ceasefire and a return to responsible regional diplomacy. There are off ramps available. Let’s use them.
The world, Europe, and Spain have faced this critical moment before. In 2003, a few irresponsible leaders dragged us into an illegal war in the Middle East that brought nothing but insecurity and pain.
Our response then must be our response now:
NO to violations of international law.
NO to the illusion that we can solve the world’s problems with bombs.
NO to repeating the mistakes of the past.
NO TO WAR.

Tucker Carlson on Iran:
Last night in Qatar and Saudi Arabia, authorities arrested Mossad agents planning on committing bombings in those countries. Now, that’s weird. It doesn’t make any sense.
Why would the Israelis be committing bombings in two Gulf countries which are also being attacked by Iran? Aren’t they on the same side? No.
Israel wants to hurt Iran and Qatar and UAE and Saudi and Bahrain and Oman and Kuwait. And they’ve succeeded.
Great Mr President. Good job.
You’re a billionaire and the American people, not the Iranian people, who voted for you are not billionaires.
As a matter of fact many of them are flat out broke, in all time high credit card debt, can’t afford health insurance or car insurance for that matter, and most young people can’t afford to buy a house or even their rent payment. Your generation, the baby boomers, your families were able to thrive on single incomes and now that’s practically impossible for the vast majority of American families. Let alone, imagine being a single mother.
Most of your baby boomer friends and supporters, I’m sure are cheering you the most.
But us younger generations, Gen X (mine), Millennials, and especially Gen Z hate this fucking bullshit.
Because we all know that in 10 years when the baby boomers that have been in charge of ALL of America’s disastrous decisions are retired or passed away, us younger generations will be left with no social security checks because it will have gone bankrupt, over $50 Trillion in debt, and a dollar that won’t be worth shit.
We, as in YOU and me, campaigned on America First.
And this is NOT it.
I am dismayed. Active and serious negotiations have yet again been undermined. Neither the interests of the United States nor the cause of global peace are well served by this. And I pray for the innocents who will suffer. I urge the United States not to get sucked in further. This is not your war.
