Feiran floods reach 15m
Groundwater Sector Director Ahmed al-Sadiq said that floodwaters in Wadi Feiran reach 10–15 million cubic metres in exceptional years, compared with 6–8 million in average years. The valley covers an area of about 4,700 square kilometres. Annual rainfall in the Saint Catherine and Wadi Feiran region ranges from 35 to 65 millimetres, and may reach 100 millimetres on Mount Catherine. The floodwaters are divided among infiltration that replenishes the groundwater aquifer, storage in lakes and dams, evaporation, and flows into the Gulf of Aqaba and the Red Sea—supporting the environment, irrigation, and the needs of living organisms.
