What to Expect This Weekend
For UAE residents eager to plan their weekend activities, weather conditions across the country are expected to bring a mix of warm temperatures and dusty skies. Here’s everything you need to know about this weekend’s forecast, so you can stay prepared.
Sunny Friday with Humid Nights
Today, the UAE can expect clear to partly cloudy skies throughout the day, accompanied by moderate humidity levels at night. According to the National Center of Meteorology (NCM), there’s also a chance of mist formation over certain coastal areas on Friday night and into early Saturday morning.
Temperature ranges for today:
- Highs: 35-40°C
- Lows: 21-26°C
Gentle breezes providing some relief are expected during the day, with light to moderate winds reaching speeds up to 30 km/hr.
A Gradual Temperature Increase on Saturday
Saturday will bring slightly higher temperatures as summer rapidly approaches. The clear and sunny skies will remain, but residents should prepare for the heat by planning any outdoor activities early in the morning or later in the evening to avoid peak temperatures.
Dusty Weather Predicted for Sunday
Come Sunday, weather conditions take a turn with dusty skies likely across parts of the UAE during the daytime. This is due to stronger winds predicted to reach speeds of up to 35 km/hr, causing blowing dust and sand that might reduce visibility in some areas. Those commuting or traveling should exercise caution and remain updated via traffic alerts.
Staying Safe During Weekend Weather Shifts
With these weather changes, here are a few safety tips to keep in mind:
- If venturing outdoors, stay hydrated. Carry a water bottle and avoid sun exposure during peak hours.
- For those sensitive to dust, avoid outdoor activities during Sunday’s windier conditions to prevent respiratory discomfort. Use face masks if necessary.
- Drivers should remain cautious: Blowing sand and dust can impact visibility, so drive slowly and ensure your vehicle’s air filters are functioning well to reduce dust pollution inside.
Planning Ahead
Whether you’re heading to the beach, dining al fresco, or staying in for some much-needed rest, keeping an eye on temperature shifts and wind conditions can help you make the most of your weekend. For residents with asthma or allergies, particularly during Sunday’s dusty weather, it’s a good idea to keep medication nearby and avoid triggers.
