Al Ain: Strong winds are expected to hit the country late on Monday, said weathermen.

Winds, at a speed of 22 knots offshore and 15 knots onshore, would lash the UAE, making the sea rough, said the National Centre of Meteorology and Seismology (NCMS).

The weathermen also expect fog in some part of the country on Tuesday morning.

"There are chances of fog during night and early morning over some areas, especially over coastal and interior areas," said the NCMS.

It would be hot during the day and pleasant during the night, said the weathermen.
