The National Centre of Meteorology has issued a forecast warning residents and visitors to prepare for deteriorating weather conditions across the Emirates. Fair to partly cloudy skies are expected, though dust and wind will be the dominant features affecting the region.
Temperatures are projected to rise considerably over the coming days, with fresh winds intensifying dusty conditions throughout the UAE. These winds will be particularly noticeable across exposed areas and open roads. Residents are advised to exercise caution when driving and to take necessary precautions against dust exposure.
Maritime activities face additional challenges, as rough sea conditions are anticipated in both the Arabian Gulf and the Oman Sea. The combination of high winds and elevated waves may affect fishing operations and recreational boating. Authorities recommend that water users monitor official marine forecasts before venturing out.
