UAE weather: Cloudy skies and rain forecasted across these Emirates

Dubai: Residents can anticipate a day characterised by a mix of partly cloudy to overcast skies across the eastern regions of the country, accompanied by a likelihood of scattered rainfall.

The National Center of Meteorology (NCM) indicates that while the skies may appear partly cloudy, the eastern areas could see the development of convective clouds, particularly during the afternoon hours, potentially leading to localised rainfall, especially over the mountainous terrain on Monday.

As for temperatures, a gradual rise is expected throughout the day, ushering in a warmer atmosphere. Coastal and island areas are predicted to experience maximum temperatures ranging from 35 to 40 degrees Celsius, while nighttime lows will comfortably settle between 17 and 22 degrees Celsius.

The forecast also highlights light to moderate winds, which could strengthen at times, with gusts reaching up to 35 km/h in coastal and island regions. This increase in wind speed may stir up blowing dust in certain exposed areas.

Meanwhile, conditions at sea are expected to remain calm, with a slight swell in both the Arabian Gulf and the Oman Sea.
