THE forecasting department of Qatar’s Civil Aviation Authority yesterday described as “hoax” a report circulating through e-mail that a hurricane is likely to hit Saudi Arabia and Oman, and bring heavy rains in Qatar and parts of the UAE tomorrow. ( friday )

A department spokesman said the reports were in circulation from Tuesday morning and several residents of Qatar expressed their concern over the possibility of adverse weather conditions in the coming days.
Inquiries found that similar e-mails at this time of last year had forced a number of companies working on the country’s coastal areas to give three or four days’ holidays to their workers.
The official said that tomorrow the weather could be pleasant in Qatar with a possibility of a mild dust storm.
However, from Sunday, winds could be stronger accompanied by dust storms. The conditions are likely to last for at least 72 hours.
