We are in the season called "sarayat" were suddenly out of nowhere the weather gets stormy. It is hard to predict. I was driving in my jeep where suddenly it hit me. First it was a sand storm, but one were you can't see your jeeps hood and then i showered and hit by massive hail stones. Fortunetly i quickly founf a plce to park under a roof otherwise my jk would of got a huge beating. These storms length is somewhere between 5 to 30mins, and they are very dangerous, because they are so sudden.
If you go to youtube and type kuwait storm you will see some videos.

You can find HMMWV here:
steelsoldiers.com/
and also you can buy them for the govorment here
govliquidation.com/index.html
going price for a 15-20 year old one is about $30,000![eek 2](https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/images/smilies/sSc_eek2.gif)
you can pick up a used 2 1/2 truck for only about $3,000
you can also get a WWII Soviet T-34 Tank for less then a HMMWV

I remember when I was there, I was only about 20 feet away from my tent when the storm hit suddenly
I ended up walking into the wrong tent
It was like walking blind

That pic was taken from the US army camp, and we get the ordinary Humvees here, these are only in the camps
