    UAE weather today: Dubai’s 41°C will feel like 44°C as humidity builds toward Friday fog warning

    Dubai: Don’t forget your sunscreen today. The mercury is sliding up again, in Dubai, and it will feel like it’s three degrees hotter than it actually is, because of rising humidity levels. According to the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM), today’s weather is expected to be fair to partly cloudy, with temperatures gradually increasing, especially westward, in regions like Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Humidity is expected to build up by nighttime and on Friday morning to 90% over some coastal areas, which is why the NCM forecasts a high probability of fog or mist formation. Temperatures in the low-40s Temperatures are increasing to the low-40s across the UAE today, although it may feel much warmer than expected due to high humidity levels. Abu Dhabi will reach 42°C today but feel like 45°C, while Dubai will see a high of 41°C and feel like 44°C. Sharjah and Ras Al Khaimah will peak at 40°C. Umm Al Quwain and Fujairah will experience 37°C temperatures, while Ajman will remain the coolest emirate today, at 36°C. Moderate sea conditions The NCM forecasts light to moderate southeasterly to northeasterly winds, freshening at times, and reaching speeds of up to 30km/h along the coast. The sea is forecast to be slight in both the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman, which means you can expect gentle waves reaching heights of up to two feet on-shore and up to three feet off-shore. Here is the complete breakdown of minimum and maximum temperatures across the Emirates today: Maximum Temp (°C) Minimum Temp (°C) Dubai 41°C 29°C Abu Dhabi 42°C 31°C Al Ain 43°C 31°C Sharjah 40°C 28°C Ajman 36°C 30°C Fujairah 37°C 31°C Ras Al Khaimah 40°C 28°C Umm Al Quwain 37°C 25°C Liwa 44°C 27°C

    UAE weather forecast: Afternoon rain, fog may reduce visibility overnight in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, as temperatures dip to high-30s

    Dubai: Planning to head home late tonight? Stick to the speed limit and drive cautiously, because you may not be able to see the road clearly – visibility is set to drop today as fog envelops Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and other regions in the UAE. According to the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM), today’s weather will be fair to partly cloudy. However, with relative humidity (RH) peaking at 90% in coastal and internal regions, the NCM forecasts a high probability of mist formation overnight and tomorrow morning, over some western areas, such as Dubai and Abu Dhabi. In such conditions, the authorities caution motorists to drive carefully, due to fog causing a reduction in horizontal visibility. Temperatures in the high-30s Meanwhile, temperatures are holding steady in the high-30s, across the UAE today. Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ras Al Khaimah are set to reach 41°C today, while Dubai and Umm Al Quwain will peak at 39°C. Ajman will experience 38°C temperatures, while Fujairah will remain the coolest emirate today, at 34°C. According to the NCM, there is a high probability of some convective cloud formation eastward and southward by the afternoon. This means regions like Fujairah and Kalba may see scattered rainfall. Moderate sea conditions The NCM also expects light to moderate southeasterly to northeasterly winds, freshening at times, and reaching speeds of up to 30km/h along the coast. The Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman will experience slight sea conditions, according to the NCM, which means calm seas, with gentle wave heights expected to reach up to two feet on-shore and up to three feet off-shore. Here is the complete breakdown of minimum and maximum temperatures across the Emirates today: Maximum Temp (°C) Minimum Temp (°C) Dubai 39°C 29°C Abu Dhabi 41°C 28°C Al Ain 41°C 30°C Sharjah 41°C 27°C Ajman 38°C 28°C Fujairah 34°C 30°C Ras Al Khaimah 41°C 28°C Umm Al Quwain 39°C 27°C Liwa 43°C 26°C

    UAE weather forecast: Why it’s cooler today in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, but 90% humidity means you won't feel the difference

    Dubai: Finding that your clothes are sticking to your skin within minutes of being outdoors? There’s a good reason for it – despite temperatures dropping slightly to the low-40s today, relative humidity (RH) levels continue to remain high across the UAE. According to the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM), today’s weather will be fair to partly cloudy, with a probability of some convective cloud formation eastward by the afternoon. The RH is peaking at 90% in coastal and internal regions – this means the air is nearly fully saturated, holding 90% of the total water vapour it can possibly contain at its current temperature. With nearly fully saturated air, the perspiration on your skin doesn’t evaporate as easily. So, stay hydrated. The NCM forecasts humidity to build overnight and on Wednesday morning over some coastal and internal areas, such as Dubai and Abu Dhabi, with a chance of fog or mist formation. Temperatures in the low-40s Temperatures have dipped slightly, into the low-40s, across the UAE today. According to the NCM, coastal and island regions will experience highs between 37°C and 42°C, while internal regions will be warmer, at 40°C to 45°C today. Abu Dhabi and Dubai will reach 41°C today, while Umm Al Quwain and Ras Al Khaimah will peak at 42°C. Sharjah will experience 40°C temperatures, while Ajman will be slightly cooler at 39°C. Fujairah remains the coolest emirate today, at 35°C. Moderate sea conditions The NCM forecasts light to moderate southeasterly to northeasterly winds, freshening at times, and reaching speeds of up to 30km/h. The Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman will experience slight sea conditions, according to the NCM, which means generally calm seas, with gentle wave heights expected to reach up to two feet on-shore and up to three feet off-shore. Here is the complete breakdown of minimum and maximum temperatures across the Emirates today: Maximum Temp (°C) Minimum Temp (°C) Dubai 41°C 31°C Abu Dhabi 41°C 30°C Al Ain 41°C 31°C Sharjah 40°C 28°C Ajman 39°C 30°C Fujairah 35°C 31°C Ras Al Khaimah 42°C 27°C Umm Al Quwain 42°C 30°C Liwa 44°C 26°C

    UAE weather forecast: Why it’s hard to cool down today - humidity reaches 95% as fog risk builds overnight

    Dubai: The air is nearly fully saturated today, as relative humidity (RH) reaches 95% in coastal regions of the UAE, such as Abu Dhabi and Dubai. According to the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM), today’s weather will be fair to partly cloudy eastward. Why you feel like you can’t cool down easily Humidity is on the rise, and will peak at 95% along coastal regions by night, and at 90% in internal areas, according to the NCM. High humidity during warm weather can cause you to feel clammy and uncomfortable because sweat doesn’t evaporate easily, hindering the body’s cooling mechanism. According to the US-based Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), prolonged exposure to high humidity can lead to dehydration and heat exhaustion, along with respiratory issues, which can be especially concerning for those with asthma. The NCM advises limiting outdoor activities in such conditions, staying hydrated, and dressing in cool fabrics. If you’re indoors, use dehumidifiers and air conditioning to help remove excess moisture from the air. With higher humidity, the NCM is also forecasting a high chance of fog formation tonight and tomorrow morning. Be cautious when driving, as horizontal visibility may drop considerably in such conditions. Warm weather Temperatures are holding steady in the low-40s across the UAE. According to the NCM, coastal and island regions will experience highs between 38°C and 43°C, while internal regions will be warmer, at 41°C to 46°C today. Abu Dhabi will reach 42°C today, while Dubai and Ras Al Khaimah will experience 41°C temperatures. Sharjah, Ajman, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain will see a high of 38°C. Moderate sea conditions The NCM forecasts light to moderate southwesterly to northwesterly winds, freshening at times, and reaching speeds of up to 30km/h. Both the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman are expected to remain calm, with gentle waves reaching up to two feet on-shore and up to three feet off-shore. Here is the complete breakdown of minimum and maximum temperatures across the Emirates today: Maximum Temp (°C) Minimum Temp (°C) Dubai 41°C 29°C Abu Dhabi 42°C 28°C Al Ain 43°C 28°C Sharjah 38°C 27°C Ajman 38°C 28°C Fujairah 38°C 29°C Ras Al Khaimah 41°C 27°C Umm Al Quwain 38°C 29°C Liwa 43°C 30°C
