A rainbow appeared over Saudi's Makkah region amidst the rainy weather that the Kingdom faced on Sunday.
In a video shared by the Makkah Region's official Twitter handle, a handle appeared over the skies of Raniyah City. The 30-second video captures the meteorological phenomenon adding some colour to the overcast skies.

Earlier, parts of the Kingdom had also encountered heavy rain and hail blanketing the road. In a video posted on Instagram, a man is seen stopping his vehicle to record the hail blanketing the road in Saudi's Tabuk - giving it a snowy look, the cloudy sky and the water flooding on the side of the road.
