Weather conditions in the UAE on Thursday are expected to be hot during daytime and partly cloudy at times, said the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM). However, some parts of the country will see partly cloudy to cloudy weather with a chance of rainfall.
The NCM said: “The weather in general will be dusty and partly cloudy especially over the Eastern and Southern areas extending to some internal areas, with some rainy convective clouds formation.”
Also, this morning, NCM reported dusty conditions due to the winds in parts of the UAE with deterioration of horizontal visibility.
A warm breeze will blow across the country during the day. The NCM also said: “Light to moderate Southeasterly to Northeasterly winds, freshening at times, will result in blowing dust and sand over some areas with a speed of 15 - 25, reaching 45 km/hr.” Drivers should be careful on the road as the dust might hinder visibility. Those who suffer from allergies should also take precautions when going outside.
