The National Center of Meteorology (NCM) has predicted fair to partly cloudy weather for today in UAE with a chance of clouds formation accompanied with rainfall.
On Sunday, heavy to moderate rains lashed several parts of the country. “The rains were expected during this season as the country transits from summer to winter,” said a UAE weather expert.
Dr Ahmed Habib from the UAE’s National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) said: “These are seasonal rains. This is the period of transition from summer to winter and the country usually receives rains during this season.
“On Monday, less and scattered rains are expected over the mountains in eastern parts of the UAE. From Tuesday, the weather will become stable with chances of fog during early morning hours.”
The maximum temperature during the day is expected to hover around 32- 35C along internal areas, 30 - 33C along the coast and 27 - 31C in the mountains.
It will be humid by evening and on Tuesday early morning with a probability of fog or mist formation over some western areas. The maximum humidity would be 60 to 85 per cent across coastal, 55 to 75 per cent in interior regions and between 40 to 60 per cent in the mountains.
Winds will be light to moderate Southeasterly to Northeasterly, freshening at times, with a speed of 20 to 30kmph, reaching up to 40kmph.
The sea will be slight to moderate in the Arabian Gulf and in the Oman Sea. Beach-goers needn’t worry as the sea will be mostly calm over the coming days.
“The sea will be slight to moderate in the Arabian Gulf and in the Sea of Oman,” said the official.
