    the storm changed direction and hit a town south of Jeddah, those in the camera club who went to seek the storm there said that it was pouring rain since 5 am until 2 pm, so glad it did not hit us, we are still recovering form 27th Dec one. that town is mostly beach resorts, so i guess not many...
