"Captivating Images: Storm Chaser's Breathtaking Shots of Extreme Weather"

Sarah Hasan Al-Sayegh, an accountant by trade, has become the first Kuwaiti-Arab female storm chaser, capturing stunning photographs of extreme weather events in the Middle East. Al-Sayegh's passion for meteorological phenomena was ignited when she encountered a massive dust storm in 2011. Since then, she has documented storms across Kuwait and the Arabian Peninsula, using her photography to raise awareness about climate change. Al-Sayegh hopes to inspire more Arab women to pursue storm chasing and other male-dominated fields, encouraging them to follow their passions regardless of gender stereotypes.
