Weather on Monday is forecast to remain generally fair, with clouds appearing over eastern areas. Humidity is expected to increase overnight and into Tuesday morning, especially in western coastal and inland areas, raising the likelihood of fog and mist.

On Tuesday, skies will be fair to partly cloudy, with convective cloud build-up and rainfall expected during the afternoon. Similar conditions are forecast on Wednesday, when rain-bearing clouds are again likely to form over eastern regions.

The NCM said temperatures are expected to fall on Thursday, particularly in western parts of the country. Fresh north-westerly winds could also generate blowing dust in exposed areas, while sea conditions in the Arabian Gulf may become moderate and occasionally rough, especially in western waters.

Winds throughout the period are expected to range between 10 and 25 kph, with gusts reaching up to 40 kph in some areas.
