Dubai: The weather across the UAE is expected to be dusty on Sunday, May 18, according to National Center of Meteorology (NCM). As the day progresses, winds will begin to pick up, especially over the sea, with speeds expected to range from 15 to 35 km/h.

This increase in wind speed may lead to a rise in dust and sand in the air, potentially reducing visibility for drivers on the road. It's advisable for those with allergies to take necessary precautions when venturing outside.

Temperatures across the region are forecasted to be in the high 40s, with maximum temperatures possibly reaching 43°C. Conversely, minimum temperatures may drop to around 17°C.

High humidity levels are also expected, reaching up to 90 percent, particularly during the evening and into Monday morning. The sea will remain slight in both the Arabian Gulf and the Oman Sea.
