Absolutely could damp from rain cause indoor issues. In dubai and uae we have had some unseasonal weather lately which can indeed lead to dampness and its associated problems. A lingering damp smell, especially worse at night, is quite common after heavy rainfall and can hint at a bigger issue lurking in your ductwork.

In the u.a.e., particularly in dubai, our climate is often dry but when we do get rain, it can be intense and lead to moisture issues if not properly managed. This dampness can breed mold and bacteria, leading to not just that musty smell but also to health issues for you and your family.

It’s important to note that the recent rains could have caused water infiltration into your HVAC system or ductwork. If the moisture isn't effectively expelled from these systems, it can accumulate over time causing a range of problems including mold growth. Mold not only affects air quality but can also trigger allergies, coughing, and sneezing—symptoms you’ve noticed in your family.
