The UAE is expected to experience a spell of unsettled weather from Monday, November 3, to Friday, November 7, the country's National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) said as the nation shifts into winter.
Conditions during these five days will be partly cloudy to occasionally cloudy, with chances of light to moderate rainfall at intervals.
The period will also see active winds and varying sea conditions, ranging from slight to moderate, along with a slight drop in temperatures on some days. The lowest temperature recorded over the country on Monday morning is 13.7°C in Raknah (Al Ain) at 06.45.
The unstable weather conditions are due to seasonal transitions between autumn and winter, as the likelihood of cloud formation increases over western and coastal areas. Light rainfall accompanied by occasional fresh winds will also be possible.
This is expected to help moderate temperatures and bring relative stability to weather conditions across most parts of the country.
According to the forecast, Monday morning will be humid over some coastal and inland areas, with partly cloudy skies and low clouds—especially over coastal areas and islands—possibly bringing light rain.
Temperatures will see a slight decline. Winds will be northwesterly, light to moderate, occasionally fresh, ranging from 10–25 km/h to 40 km/h. The sea will be slight to moderate, becoming rough at times in the Arabian Gulf, and slight to moderate in the Sea of Oman.
On Tuesday morning, conditions will remain humid over some coastal and inland areas, with conditions turning partly cloudy to occasionally cloudy, especially in the west and over coastal areas, and occasionally dusty in the north and east. Winds will be southeasterly, shifting to northwesterly, light to moderate, sometimes fresh, at 10–25 km/h, reaching 40 km/h. The sea will be slight to moderate in both the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman.
On Wednesday, the weather will be humid in the morning over some coastal and inland areas, becoming partly cloudy to occasionally cloudy in the west with a chance of light to moderate rain at times, accompanied by a slight rise in temperatures. Winds will be southeasterly to northeasterly, light to moderate, occasionally fresh, at 10–25 km/h, reaching 35 km/h. The sea will be slight in both the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman.
