UAE weather update: Dusty skies and reduced visibility blanket Dubai and Abu Dhabi

## Weather Conditions

Dubai and Abu Dhabi are experiencing dusty and hazy conditions today, with visibility reduced due to blowing dust. The National Center of Meteorology attributes this to a weak surface low-pressure system from the east and an upper air low-pressure system.

## Wind and Temperature

Winds are blowing from the southeast to northeast at speeds of 10 to 25 km/h, occasionally reaching 35 km/h. These winds are affecting coastal, internal, and mountain areas. Temperatures in coastal areas, including Dubai and Abu Dhabi, are expected to range from 39°C to 44°C, with nighttime lows between 29°C and 34°C. Internal regions may see temperatures as high as 46°C.

## Sea and Humidity

Sea conditions remain relatively calm with slight wave activity in the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman. Humidity levels vary, with coastal areas experiencing up to 85% humidity overnight, dropping to 20-35% during the day. Internal areas are drier, with humidity ranging from 15% to 70%.

## Safety Advice

Motorists are advised to drive cautiously due to reduced visibility. People with respiratory issues should limit outdoor activities, and residents are encouraged to stay hydrated due to the high temperatures.
