## Weather Changes from Wednesday

The UAE is set to experience a shift in weather starting Wednesday, with dusty winds and light rain forecasted. The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has indicated that these conditions will affect several regions.

## Temperature and Wind Conditions

Temperatures are expected to drop slightly, with daytime highs around 27°C in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, and lows between 19°C and 22°C. Winds will be northwesterly, ranging from light to moderate, but may become strong, especially over the sea, with speeds reaching up to 50 km/h.

## Sea Conditions

The Arabian Gulf is anticipated to be rough to very rough, while the Oman Sea will be moderate to rough. These conditions could lead to reduced visibility due to dust and sand.

## Outlook for Thursday and Beyond

On Thursday, the weather will be fair to partly cloudy, with humidity increasing at night, potentially causing mist in coastal areas. Winds will vary between northwesterly and southwesterly, with speeds up to 40 km/h.

By Friday, partly cloudy skies and a chance of light rain over coastal areas are expected. Humidity will rise overnight, particularly along the coast, with winds easing slightly.

## Weekend Weather

Saturday should see more stable conditions, with fair to partly cloudy skies and a gradual temperature increase. However, humid conditions overnight into Sunday may result in mist or fog in some areas. Winds will be lighter, and seas will become slight.
