Weather of Arabia - A circulating video clip showed that the Riyadh - Hotat Bani Tamim road was exposed to sandstorms, which are currently causing a lack of horizontal visibility and impeding the movement of vehicles on the road.

 

It is noteworthy that large parts of the Kingdom will be exposed in the coming hours to a large activity in wind speed, which will expand the dust waves and decrease the horizontal visibility in large areas.
