Dubai: Unexpected strong land breeze whipped up dusty conditions on Sunday dropping visibility in areas as Jebel Ali down to 600 meters, the Dubai Met Office said.

There is no chance of showers anywhere in the UAE, though elsewhere in the Gulf, Kuwait experienced light rain, the duty forecaster said. "There is no rain in the seven-day forecast," he said.

The maximum temperature is hovering between 34 to 36 degree centigrade, while the minimum is around 26 degree. Inland, in Sharjah, it is much cooler in the nights at around 22 degree centigrade.

The forecaster promised "gorgeous weather" for the next couple of days, warm, sunny and very little humidity.
