THE SAUDI SOUTH-WESTERN HIGHLANDS — A FLASH-FLOOD REGIME THAT KEEPS RUNNING

THE WATER

The highlands run keeps running. Thunderstorms, hail and torrents persist over Asir, Al-Baha, Jazan and the Makkah highlands. Carried and marked aging: the freshest cleanly dated content on this run is older than today, so the regime is reported as persisting rather than restated as new.
