Heavy rainstorms – Talea Valley

Whilst in the Asir mountains with Phil Roberts we got caught in a massive rainstorm with some hail thrown in as well. We sat in the car for more than six hours waiting for the storm to pass to allow us to bird one of our favourite locations of the Talea Valley. This is a site we visit almost every time we go to the Abha area of the southwest of the Kingdom. As a result, I have photos of what it normally looks like and what it looked like when the rainstorm finally abated. The area is used to rain for much of the year but these rainstorms were particularly heavy and lasted for much longer than normal.
