The National Centre of Meteorology always keeps updating the weather report which is so informative regarding the rainy days ahead. Everyone should keep himself updated on the weather reports and follow the government’s instructions to avoid any ill-fated incidents on the roads during the rainy season (‘Winter rain lashes parts of UAE, lowest temperature recorded at 9.4°C in Ras Al Khaimah,” Nov.18, Gulf Today website).

According to the report, the UAE on Friday witnessed heavy rainfall due to extension of a surface air depression from the Red Sea with an extension of an air depression in the upper layers of the atmosphere, accompanied by an air current from the west and a cold air mass with the flow of clouds from the west.

The National Centre of Meteorology reported that the depression currently affecting the country would recede gradually late on Friday, the NCM added.
It’s so important to be careful while driving your vehicles and follow the guidelines of the government regarding road safety during the rainy season.
I am sure everyone will be following the weather updates provided by the National Centre of Meteorology to remain safe and enjoy the best days of winter.

However, as weather conditions improve, it won’t be long before the residents of the United Arab Emirates start enjoying the winter season with a number of sports activities and festivals. The winter season turns more cool and pleasant when the winter rain starts showering blessings on the residents and tourists from all over the world.
