Link: UAE eyes SMS storm warnings
UAE residents could soon receive advance warning of adverse weather conditions by text message, an official said on Saturday. Authorities are considering a range of options, including SMS, aimed at reducing the impact of bad weather on the public, although a decision has not yet been finalised, a source from the National Centre of Meteorology and Seismology (NCMS) told UAE daily Gulf News. “One of the objectives of the NCMS is to issue weather forecasts and early warnings to help people avoid any risks that might be associated with extraordinary weather phenomena such as cyclones, severe windstorms, heavy rain, fog or dust storms,†said NCMS Executive Director Abdullah Ahmad Al Mandoos.
