NCM predicts rain in parts of UAE and drop in temperatures for next couple of days

The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) predicts rain for Tuesday in the eastern regions. It is expected to continue for the next four days, along with a temperature dip, particularly in the western areas. This weather pattern results from a weak surface low-pressure system moving in from the east, linked with an upper-level high-pressure system.

Tuesday's weather will range from clear to partly cloudy, with the potential for cumulus clouds to develop in the east during the afternoon, which might bring rain. Temperatures will see a decline, notably in the west.

Humidity is expected on Tuesday night and into Wednesday morning in select coastal and inland areas, which could lead to fog or mist. Winds will vary from light to moderate, shifting from southeasterly to northwesterly, sometimes becoming brisk over the sea in the west, with speeds between 10 and 25 km/h, and possibly reaching up to 40 km/h. The sea conditions will be calm to moderately rough, occasionally rough in the Arabian Gulf, and slight in the Sea of Oman.

The NCM reports that Wednesday's weather will range from clear to partly cloudy. There's a possibility of cumulus clouds developing in the east during the afternoon, which may bring rain. The night is expected to be humid, extending into Thursday morning, with a chance of light fog over some coastal and inland areas. Winds are predicted to be light to moderate, occasionally becoming active and causing dust, blowing from northwest to southwest at speeds between 10 and 25 km/h, occasionally reaching up to 40 km/h. The sea conditions will generally be slight to moderate, turning occasionally rough in the western Arabian Gulf, while remaining slight to moderate in the Sea of Oman.

For Thursday, the NCM forecasts weather conditions similar to Wednesday, with skies being clear to partly cloudy. Cumulus clouds might form in the eastern regions in the afternoon, potentially bringing rain. A further drop in temperatures is expected, with high humidity overnight into Friday morning, increasing the likelihood of fog or mist over certain coastal and inland areas. Winds will shift from northwesterly to southwesterly, maintaining light to moderate speeds, sometimes becoming active and causing dust, ranging from 10 to 25 km/h and occasionally reaching up to 40 km/h. The sea conditions will remain slight to moderate across both the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman.

On Friday, expect mostly clear to partly cloudy skies with occasional dustiness. Cumulus clouds may again appear in the east during the afternoon, with potential rain. Overnight humidity will rise, continuing into Saturday morning over some western areas. Winds will proceed from southeasterly to northeasterly, light to moderate, at times active and raising dust, with speeds from 10 to 25 km/h, reaching up to 40 km/h. The sea is projected to stay slight to moderate in both the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman.
