UAE Braces for Unstable Weather Through March 5 as Low-Pressure System Strengthens

A southeast-to-northwest wind shift will usher in cooler conditions with rougher seas.

Overview

  • NCM guidance shows clouds forming Tuesday night over islands and western areas before rain extends into Abu Dhabi, inland districts, and the northern and eastern regions.
  • Rainfall is expected to be mostly light to moderate, with heavier showers possible in some northern and eastern areas.
  • Temperatures will fall on Wednesday, with highs around 34°C in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, as southeasterly to northwesterly winds of 10–25 km/h gusting to 40 km/h may raise dust and reduce visibility.
  • Sea conditions in the Arabian Gulf will turn rough from Tuesday night through Thursday, while the Oman Sea remains slight to moderate.
  • Thick fog on March 2 triggered red and yellow visibility alerts, and skies are forecast to clear gradually from Thursday night into Friday.
