For the second time in two months, the UAE is witnessing unstable weather conditions, with authorities implementing flexible work and learning options to ensure the safety of all.
Last month, schools switched to online learning on April 16 due to the historic storm that hit the UAE. The move was extended for a few days, due to the after-effects of the unstable weather.
In emirates like Sharjah, where residents faced prolonged effects of the heavy rains, students observed distance and hybrid learning until Monday, April 29, when most of them returned back to school.
As the country prepares for inclement weather conditions from today, the UAE has issued an alert for "medium to heavy rains" for the next two days. Authorities have once again announced distance learning in multiple emirates to ensure the safety and well-being of staff and students at educational institutions across the country.
Here are all the emirates that have announced remote classes during the adverse weather conditions.
