Dubai: Weather conditions in the UAE will remain hot, humid and uncomfortable over the next few days, according to Dubai Meteorological Office.

The maximum temperature in Dubai on Sunday was 41 degree Celsius with a light northwesterly wind bringing little respite.

Theo Carter, a forecaster at Dubai Meteorological Office, told Gulf News the comfort index was sitting at 'very uncomfortable' on Sunday and there remains a risk of thunderstorms over the eastern mountains.

Al Ain and other inland areas suffered from dust storms on Sunday.
