Hot and hazy weather to continue all over UAE

Hot and hazy weather will continue in general all over the country with occasional partly cloudy conditions in some areas in the next two days, the National Centre of Meteorology and Seismology has forecast.

The sea is also expected to be moderately rough, Gulf News reported on Thursday.

Winds would remain moderately rough in general, blowing dust and sands about the coastal and open areas in the next 48 hours.

The winds are coming from over the Arabian Gulf and are saturated with moisture, said the weather report. The level of humidity was expected to increase.

The forecast said a trail of clouds has been extended from India and Pakistan to northern Africa via Arabian Gulf and Oman. Most of Oman is under the clouds and some of its areas have also received showers.

The temperature has dropped a few degrees in the UAE, but it is still very hot and dangerous for prolonged outdoor activities.

Yesterday the maximum high temperature remained between 28C and 42C in the coastal areas, 26C to 47C in the interior, and 25C to 35C in the mountainous areas.

Winds kicked up dust and sand in most coastal areas including Dubai yesterday, reducing visibility in the already scattered cloudy conditions.
