Moderate to heavy rain is seen over new Khor Fakkan road, which is en route to Al Dhaid. Light to moderate rain can also be observed in Maleha, Sharjah, according to posts on X.

The extension of Indian monsoons will impact UAE for most of this month, a climate expert told Khaleej Times earlier. Clouds could develop intermittently over certain areas in the country, he explained.
Earlier, NCM had issued a yellow warning for rain today, June 23. The weather department also cautioned against dust and sand brought about by winds that are expected to blow in the country until 8pm today.
The weather is expected to be humid by night and Monday morning with a probability of mist formation over some coastal areas, according to the NCM forecast.
