Eastern regions forecast to see convective cloud formation through the weekend.
The UAE is expected to experience a mix of rain-bearing clouds, blowing dust, humid conditions, and fog over the weekend, with inland temperatures projected to reach up to 48°C, according to the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM).
Light to moderate winds, reaching up to 45 kph in some areas, are expected to raise dust and sand, leading to occasional reduced visibility. Inland temperatures are forecast to range between 43°C and 48°C, while coastal areas may see highs of up to 44°C.
Similar weather conditions are expected to continue through Thursday, with a chance of afternoon showers in eastern regions and occasional rough seas in the western Arabian Gulf. Temperatures are forecast to ease slightly on Friday as cloud cover increases over mountainous areas, while humid conditions may lead to mist overnight into Saturday morning.
By the weekend, weather is expected to remain fair to partly cloudy across most areas, with possible fog or mist in coastal regions during early mornings. Convective cloud development may return over eastern mountains on Sunday afternoon, while seas are likely to stay slight to moderate in both the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman.
