Al Ain: Moderate rain is expected to hit many parts of the emirates on Sunday and Monday.

An unsettled weather system has developed over the country, giving overnight drizzle and light rain in Al Ain and some other parts of the country, including Dubai.

"We expect partly cloudy weather in general to cloudy at times during early morning over some western and northern coastal areas with a chance of light rain [in the next 48 hours]," said a forecaster at the National Centre of Meteorology and Seismology.

The south easterly and north easterly winds are, however, blowing between 7 to 15 knots. The met office also warned people of early morning mist or fog patches in some internal areas.

Maximum temperate on Monday is expected to be 24 to 28 degree Celsius.

Weathermen are also expecting a raise in relative humidity in the coastal areas.
