Abu Dhabi has resumed operations at all public parks, recreational centers, and municipal beaches after briefly closing them on Friday evening due to anticipated adverse weather conditions. Authorities implemented this precautionary measure to safeguard the public, as unstable weather and heavy rainfall impacted certain regions within the emirate.
The National Centre of Meteorology issued a yellow weather alert for the southern and eastern areas of Abu Dhabi, cautioning residents about dust and sandstorms resulting from strong winds, along with the potential for rain and thunderstorms. Simultaneously, the Abu Dhabi Civil Defence cautioned the public through a message on social media platform X, urging vigilance during the rain and advising against venturing into wadis and water pools.
This unpredictable weather is projected to persist through the weekend, with temperatures hovering in the low 40s across various parts of the country. Additionally, fog and mist are expected to emerge in coastal regions during the early mornings. Motorists have been instructed to adhere to temporary speed restrictions, maintain a safe distance from other vehicles, and avoid regions where rainwater has accumulated.
