Today is the last day of winter and tomorrow will be the first day of spring in the UAE, according to the National Centre for Meteorology and Seismology (NCMS).
 
From tomorrow, spring will start and will continue to June 20 when temperatures will start raising.

Caution urged due to low visibility

Meanwhile, NCMS has urged motorists to be more cautious, drive slowly and leave enough distance between vehicles due to low-visibility caused by dust, fog and rainfall expected over the next three days.
 
In a statement released today, the NCMS advised people not to go to sea during this period as seas will be rough and waves will be high in the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman.
 
NCMS also stressed the importance of periodically checking weather reports on its website or by calling its toll-free number.
