In Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait has imposed rotating power outages in some residential areas despite soaring summer temperatures in the desert country. The state-owned KUNA news agency attributed the blackouts to “a disruption in fuel supply,” which has resulted in the closure of desalination plants and a few power facilities. The projected high for Kuwait on the specific Sunday was 43 degrees Celsius (109 degrees Fahrenheit). Weather experts cautioned that the temperature might have a sensation of 53 degrees Celsius (127 degrees Fahrenheit) due to the poor air quality.
