    Tropical storm causes USD50m losses in Oman

The storm flooded many parts of the Sultanate, forced evacuating 60 patients rom two hospitals by government helicopters and the hospitals had to be closed. The raging floods swept away the vehicles that stood in its way and some drivers scrambled to the rooftops of their cars to escape the rising water, which reached in some regions 5-feet high, according to witnesses.
