TORRENTIAL rain turned dream holiday hotspot Dubai into a flooded nightmare yesterday.
More than 18 months' worth of rain was dumped in a matter of hours.
The chaos sparked travel misery for British holidaymakers and even some reality TV stars.
Shopping centres Dubai Mall and Mall of the Emirates both suffered flooding and water was ankle-deep in at least one Dubai metro station.
Roads and residential communities were also underwater across the United Arab Emirates, a desert country where rain is an unusual event.
Schools shut around the country as further storms and hail were forecast.
