I've been told that OMDW has been built in an area that suffers from the most occurrences of fog in the whole of the UAE!! Now why doesn't that surprise me!!?!
That night before the fog rolled into DXB, I was shocked at seeing that DBW was already 100m in FG while DXB was still reporting 8K+ . DXB didn't see the fog until around 2-3 hours later
