Changing Conditions Across the Week
The National Centre of Meteorology has forecast unstable weather across the UAE, with varying conditions expected through Friday.
The outlook includes rainfall, rising humidity, and dusty winds, reflecting a shift from stable weather patterns.
Rain and Humidity Early in the Week
Monday brings partly cloudy to cloudy skies, with light to moderate rainfall expected over coastal, eastern, and southern regions.
Temperatures will rise gradually, while humidity increases overnight, creating conditions for mist formation in some areas.
Winds and Dust Begin to Build
On Tuesday, skies remain fair to partly cloudy, with a chance of light rain in southern areas.
Winds will strengthen during the day, leading to blowing dust and reduced visibility in exposed regions. Sea conditions are expected to become rough by the afternoon.
Midweek Intensification
Wednesday marks the peak of the unstable phase. Stronger winds are likely to lower visibility further, especially in open areas.
Sea conditions will turn rough to very rough, increasing risks for marine activity.
Gradual Stabilisation Toward the Weekend
By Thursday and Friday, conditions ease slightly. Skies remain fair to partly cloudy, while dusty winds continue at a moderate level.
Sea conditions are expected to stabilize, though caution remains necessary due to lingering wind activity.
Overall Outlook
The forecast reflects a typical transitional weather pattern, combining rainfall, dust, and shifting wind systems.
Such conditions affect visibility, travel, and marine operations, requiring close monitoring as the week progresses.
