The clean-up.

After the gales a couple of days ago the work gangs are out cleaning up the mess, including some of the newly-planted date palms that took a bit of a battering. Quite a few had to be straightened. I noticed a few of the established palms had snapped off just below the fronds too, so the gusts must have been even stronger than I thought.



I was reminded of something I've talked about before too - nothing but a red flag to protect cleaners on Dubai's dangerous roads...



That really needs looking into.
