UAE Braces for Early-Morning Fog Through Thursday

Abu Dhabi Police set temporary 80kph limits in low visibility to curb road risks.

Overview

  • The National Centre of Meteorology forecasts fog or mist over some coastal and internal areas from Monday until at least Thursday.
  • Early-morning travel may be affected, following recent dense fog that doubled some commutes and triggered flight cancellations on February 10–11 in Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
  • Variable speed limits drop to 80kph during fog on Abu Dhabi roads, with electronic sign alerts and fines for violations.
  • The broader outlook features fair to partly cloudy days with humid nights and a high chance of fog persisting through midweek.
  • Temperatures range from about 17°C at night to 30–32°C by day, with light to moderate winds up to roughly 35 km/h and mostly slight seas that can turn moderate at times.
