Some RAK schools close early due to heavy rain
Ras Al Khaimah - Heavy rains and flooding forced schools to send students back home.
Mainly kindergartens, mostly located close to the valleys and mountains, were affected by the rain.
"Some parents, including myself, decided to not send their children to school for their safety," said Abdullah Al Shehi, an Emirati national.
"Some rocks have also fallen from the nearby mountains, particularly those close to Ghalila, Shaam, and Halhal valleys."
However, older students came to schools despite the showers, they added.
"Some schools sent the students home earlier today by 1pm due to the heavy showers before the valleys are flooded with rain water."
