Oman braces for historic landfall from Tropical Cyclone Shaheen
For the first time in decades, a hurricane-strength cyclone is poised to slam into the northern coast of Oman. Tropical Cyclone Shaheen, equivalent to a Category 1 hurricane, is expected to make landfall in the Middle Eastern nation late Sunday night or early Monday morning local time.
The storm will generate a dangerous ocean surge, flash flooding and damaging winds in an area unaccustomed to such weather extremes. In a single day, some areas could see more than twice their annual rainfall, which is only three to four inches.
