The thick foggy conditions are not limited to the UAE alone, with the weather condition painting a similar picture for Bahrain, Oman and Kuwait.

The Abu Dhabi Police also issued a warning to commuters stating: “Low visibility due to fog formation on different parts in Abu Dhabi and highways. Motorists are urged to take extra caution.”
Jet Airways also tweeted: “Today’s flight 9W 526 Abu Dhabi-Kuwait stands cancelled due bad weather at Kuwait.”
The NCMS has alerted Monday will generally see fair weather to partly cloudy at times, with moderate temperatures during the day and relatively cold during nighttime with light to moderate winds.
The Mercury has been gradually rising since the weekend, with the lowest temperature recorded over the country on Monday morning being 5.2-degree Celsius on Jabal Jais at 3:30am; this a few degrees higher than the two-degree recorded over the weekend.
The relative humidity is likely to increase during night and early morning over some coastal and internal areas, with a chance of fog-mist formation, especially to the west on Tuesday also.
