Description
English: These two images, acquired by the Copernicus Sentinel-2A and Sentinel-2B satellites on 30 September (left) and 5 October 2021 (right), show the disastrous impact of cyclonic storm Shaheen on Omani coastal areas. On 3 October, Shaheen made landfall near al-Khabura (the city is visible in the top right of each image), causing 13 deaths. According to meteorologists from the Yale Climate Connection, the amount of rainfall that Shaheen discharged was greater than the average total for a full year. In Al-Marat alone, near the capital Muscat, 136.6 millimetres of rainfall were recorded. Meanwhile, at Seeb International Airport, as much as 73 mm fell, when the average annual rainfall in the area is 89.7mm. Data from the Copernicus missions allow us to monitor the effects of natural disasters around the world.
