Residents living in Fujairah and Khorfakkan have posted up a number of rain videos online, as they welcomed the change in weather.
According to the NCMS, more clouds are expected to form on Thursday that will approach some of the coastal areas between Abu Dhabi and Dubai, as well as the areas between Ras Al Khaimah and Dubai.
However, the weather forecaster said that residents living in the coastal areas are more likely to witness further rainfall than people in the cities, as strong winds and dusty conditions will persist until Friday.
