UAE weather forecast: Temperatures to hit 44°C as clouds, blowing dust persist next week

The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has issued a weather forecast indicating that temperatures in parts of the UAE could soar to 44°C on Thursday. This heatwave will be accompanied by increasing humidity levels, particularly in coastal regions, which could climb as high as 90%. Winds will be light to moderate but could gust up to 40km/h along the coast and islands, and up to 35km/h in internal and mountainous areas.

The Arabian Gulf is expected to become rough by Friday morning, while the Sea of Oman may experience moderate to rough conditions at times. Coastal temperatures are forecast to rise on Friday, with breezy conditions that could stir up blowing dust. As the weekend approaches, mist and fog are anticipated over the weekend, particularly over eastern and southern areas.

Fair to partly cloudy conditions will prevail throughout the weekend, with the possibility of mist developing overnight and into Monday morning in some coastal and internal areas.

Winds will moderate to around 30km/h over the weekend, while sea conditions will remain relatively calm. Similar weather patterns are expected to continue on Monday, with another chance of mist over coastal and internal areas overnight and into Tuesday morning.
