Temperatures across the United Arab Emirates are forecast to soar up to 46°C on Saturday, accompanied by high humidity levels that may cause fog or mist, particularly during the overnight and early morning hours. These conditions are most likely to affect coastal and inland areas, as reported by the national weather service.
The weather is expected to remain generally fair to partly cloudy, with light to moderate winds prevailing. Inland regions could experience temperatures ranging between 41°C and 46°C, while coastal areas and islands may see temperatures from 36°C to 41°C. In the mountainous areas, temperatures are anticipated to be cooler, spanning from 29°C to 35°C.
Humidity levels could reach as high as 95% in certain areas, significantly increasing the chances of reduced visibility due to fog or mist from late Saturday through Sunday morning. These weather conditions are likely to persist throughout the coming week, with similar patterns expected through Wednesday and Thursday.
Starting Monday afternoon, eastern parts of the UAE may witness increased cloud development, with the possibility of convective clouds forming. Meanwhile, winds might occasionally pick up to around 35 km/h, although sea conditions are predicted to remain generally slight, except for some periods of moderate to rough seas in the Sea of Oman.
